Book Reviews of Hand-Made Books: An Introduction to Bookbinding

Book Review: Excellent resource
Summary: 5 Stars

I am a librarian, and I often resent having to pay a professional bindery to reconstruct poorly-made or worn out bindings. I have used this book to teach myself the basics of book binding with great success, and minimal investment in terms of equipment and supplies. The directions are clear, and the illustrations and photos are generous and helpful. I have recommended this book to colleagues whenever possible.
