Hardcover. Zustand: Near Fine. Zustand des Schutzumschlags: Very Good. 4to (31 cm), XVIII, 340 pp., including 106 plates. Publisher's cloth and dust jacket (dj slightly frayed at extremities, errata slip tipped onto front free endpaper). The first substantial study of Irish bookbinding in more than thirty years, examining Trinity College Dublin's role as a patron of fine binding throughout the eighteenth century. The volume opens with an introductory essay on Sir Edward Sullivan, the first historian of Irish bookbinding, together with a survey of earlier scholarship by G. D. Hobson, Maurice Craig, Desmond J. Clarke, Thomas P. O'Neill, and William O'Sullivan, including an account of the celebrated 149-volume set of manuscript Journals of the Irish Parliament -- among the finest Irish bindings of the century -- tragically destroyed in the fire at the Four Courts in 1922. Six chapters follow: I. The New Library; II. The Premium Scheme; III. The Printing House; IV. The Leathleys; V. William Hallhead, William McKenzie and Richard Mercier; VI. The Binders and Their Styles -- tracing the stylistic development of Trinity College bindings from the Harleian tradition through the neo-Classical period, with particular attention to the workshops of Leathley ("The College Binder"), Hallhead, McKenzie, and, by extension, George Mullen. The volume concludes with an illustrated Catalogue of Bindings (102 examples, each accompanied by a full technical description including size, materials, covers, spine, endbands, edges, endpapers, provenance, and ownership history), a Catalogue of Tools reproducing 560 tools from the workshops of seven binders, colour plates, Appendices I-X, selected bibliography, and indices of binders, owners (present and past), and general subjects. A landmark contribution to the history of the Irish book trade, establishing for the first time a fully documented account of Trinity College Dublin's binding commissions and the family and apprenticeship networks of its principal binders. An essential reference for collectors and historians of Irish gold-tooled bindings.…
