The care of books in general -- The care of books in the library -- Some enemies of books -- The repair and mending of books -- The treatment of paper, vellum, etc. -- The care of leather bindings -- The treatment of cloth bindings -- When all else fails -- A list of references
The first edition of this book was published in 1931, and it has subsequently become the amateur bookbinder's bible. It is also useful to librarians and private book collectors and deserves a wider audience. While there is much the average librarian can do to master the art of mending books, the authors wisely caution the amateur against undertaking repair jobs involving rare books and manuscripts where complicated methods are necessary. The authors have compiled a reasonably good list of references. It should prove useful to those who may wish to pursue specialized subjects further
