Considered by many bookbinders and librarians to be the clearest and most valuable exposition of hand bookbinding in English, this volume concisely covers virtually every aspect of the craft--from folding and collating pages, trimming and gilding edges and cutting and attaching boards to preparing covers, designing and inlaying on leather, and creating clasps and ties. A "must-have" for craftspeople, libraries, and book preservationists. 120 figures. 8 halftones.
