Reviews

[Eric Michels · Rating 3 out of 5]

An interesting historical account of bookbinding practice at the turn of the 20th century. A bit too practical for the time to be of significant use now (much description of the sourcing of materials in European cities at the time and commercial practice between contemporary suppliers and contractors). That said, a quick and interesting read.
