How to Make Books
An accessible how-to book for making handmade books, illustrated with photos of limited edition work from Purgatory Pie Press and with instructional drawings that are clear, unusual, and intriguing.
The designs require very little glue and no special equipment. The materials used range from recycled bits and pieces to artists' handmade papers and fine leathers. Simple "instant books" and accordion-fold books are presented in the first half of the book; as readers build their skills, these projects give way to more complex, multisignature books.
30 projects in all.
