Excerpt from Bookbinding and Its Auxiliary Branches, Vol. 2 of 4: In Four Parts

It has been my aim in compiling these pages to treat the subject in a concise and comprehensive manner, defining consistently terms and processes in a way which may be grasped by novices and serve as an aid to book binders, librarians and printers who are more or less in charge of office work. To instruct the printer and binder, serve as a court of appeal for the man in the bindery when he should question erroneous work orders, and to aid both in satisfying the requisitioner, these pages are written. The wail for the prostitution and the decad ence of the once proud art of bookbinding should be quelled by the improvements of to-day succeeded by those of to-morrow in the advance of a modern bookbinding.
