'This is such a fundamentally important book that no one interested in prints should be without it' Printmaking Today

Arranged in self-contained sections that can be consulted individually or as part of a larger research operation, the book simplifies accurate identification of any printed image.Included are manual methods, and also the mechanical processes that constitute the vast majority of printed images around us.
