5 out of 5 stars A clear and useful introduction to bookbinding   January 11, 2007
 6 out of 6 found this review helpful

I have done several bookbinding and box-building projects, and have looked at a number of books on the subjects. This is the best introduction I have seen. I wish I had had it when starting out.
The language is clear and effective. The illustrations (mostly drawings) are also clear and effective. There is a helpful listing of the tools needed. All are simple hand tools, and none are particularly expensive. The suggested materials are currently widely available. If you are thinking of doing a bookbinding project, and have no experience, this book is highly recommended.



1 out of 5 stars Illustrations of abysmal quality   November 26, 2006
 2 out of 9 found this review helpful

Ridiculously poor illustrations largely consisting of simple line drawings that have the appearance of third generation photocopies.


5 out of 5 stars Absolutely perfect!   November 10, 2006

The book I ordered was brand new and I saved so much from the retail price! The best part was that it qualified for free shipping and it came within 4 days!! What a surprise that was! I have to say that I am extremely delighted to use amazon and this seller.

Thorough and practical. Every hand bookbinder needs a copy of this classic work.
