Excerpt from Specimens of Book Types and of Printing and Bookbinding
HE Press Room of the norwood press is one of the largest in the country, having a capacity exceeding that of Fifty Cylinder Presses. It is furnished with the best makes of modern presses, including Stop-cylinder, Two-revolu tion, Flat-bed Perfecting, Adams, and Job Presses, and is sufficiently extensive to enable us to print large editions in the least possible time. Every description of Book or Catalogue Printing is in our line, although we make the finer classes of illustrated work the feature of our business, and a few specimens are shown in this volume. We have printed in the past year volumes, ranging in size from mm, 100 to 1600 pages each, in editions of 250 to copies, or an equivalent of volumes daily, which used about 8 tons of paper per day. We now store in our vault about boxes of plates, and have storage capacity for twice that number.
The Text of this Specimen Book is not printed from type, on extra paper; but from electrotype plates, on ordinary paper, and with our regular book ink, to show the results to be obtained in the average book.

Verkäuferbewertung 4 von 5 Sternen
Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book offers a penetrating critique of the aspirations of American parents in the 19th century. The author laments the misguided pursuit of "gentlemanly" and "ladylike" education for children, arguing that such an approach fosters a sense of entitlement and a disdain for honest labor. Instead, the author advocates for an education grounded in the value of hard work and service, asserting that true gentility lies in the dignity of productive labor. The book's central argument resonates with the broader social anxieties of the era, where societal ideals of upward mobility were clashing with the realities of a rapidly industrializing nation. The author's incisive observations on the relationship between education, social class, and individual worth continue to hold relevance for contemporary readers, reminding us of the enduring importance of cultivating character and purpose alongside intellectual pursuits. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. Bestandsnummer des Verkäufers 9781332035335_0
