Bookbinding

by Douglas Cockerell
illustrated by Noel Rooke

One of the principal texts of the Arts and Crafts movement in England, this classic work brought a resurgence of life and vigor to the ancient craft of hand bookbinding. Its fame and usefulness has endured for more than a century, as evidenced by the many contemporary bookbinders and librarians who consider it to be the clearest and most valuable exposition of the technique of hand bookbinding in English. It concisely covers virtually every aspect of the craft, and the masterful text is accompanied by more than 20 informative text diagrams and eight plates, as well as a glossary and an index.
