The purpose of this book is to guide you through each stage of making a book bound in leather, a 'fine binding': a book fully covered in leather, with leather-jointed endpapers, gilt edges and leather doublures.
It is designed to be used as you work, and is arranged as a numbered index of the processes involved: the sequence of operations. Once you have identified the stage you are at in the sequence, you simply turn to that number in the main text where you can read a rationale (why you do it), followed by the technique (how you do it).
Understanding your purpose and improving your skill will increase your confidence and enhance your making experience. Bookbinding - making books - is wonderful in its diversity. You are artist and engineer, designer and maker and, as with all arts, mastering your technique frees your intent. This book, by explaining why, and then how, aims to help you to achieve that.

paperback. Zustand: Good. Our good condition books are generally good for reading but not for gifting or collecting. They could have imperfections such as creasing, fanning, inscriptions, margin notes, yellowing, staining on edge or cover or pages, bumps, scuffs, etc etc (sometimes multiple of these). It's a wide category that encompasses anything that isn't almost-new down to anything that is slightly better than poor. We would NOT recommend gifting Good books - these should be considered reading copies. Our books are dispatched from a Yorkshire former cotton mill. We list via barcode/ISBN so please note that the images are stock images and may not be the exact copy you receive, furthermore the details about edition and year might not be accurate as many publishers reuse the same ISBN for multiple editions and as we simply scan a barcode or enter an ISBN we do not check the validity of the edition data when listing. If you're looking for an exact edition please don't order (at least not without checking with us first, although we don't always have time to check). We aim to dispatch prompty, the service used will depend on order value and book size. We can ship to most countries, see our shipping policies. Payment is via Abe only.
