Review by Library Journal Review

Bookbinding can be a satisfying hobby for those willing to set up a workshop with the required equipment. Abbott, a professional bookbinder in London, demonstrates projects ranging from simple, one-fold paperbacks to quarter leather bindings and cloth-covered slipcases. Instructions are basic and intended for beginners as well as experienced binders. A good addition to paper crafts and scrapbooking collections. (c) Copyright 2010.
