Abstract
THIS is a clearly written book by a high authority on practical bookbinding, suitable for amateur or professional. It does not enter into either mass binding or casing for the trade, or the refinements of finishing dear to the high-class amateur. The attempt to illustrate the various manual processes by photography might perhaps have been more successful had the photographs been better reproduced in the printing; as they are, they are less clear than the line drawings in Mr. Cockerell's well-known book.
