Summary: Good as a reminder 2008-10-26
Comment: Books, Boxes & Portfolios: Binding, Construct and Design, Step-By-Step
Not bad as a reminder for teachers and those not fully educated as a bookbinder. Serves as a reasonable text book. Expected better, but has some good hints.

Summary: A clear and useful introduction to bookbinding 2007-01-11
Comment: I have done several bookbinding and box-building projects, and have looked at a number of books on the subjects. This is the best introduction I have seen. I wish I had had it when starting out.
The language is clear and effective. The illustrations (mostly drawings) are also clear and effective. There is a helpful listing of the tools needed. All are simple hand tools, and none are particularly expensive. The suggested materials are currently widely available. If you are thinking of doing a bookbinding project, and have no experience, this book is highly recommended.

Summary: Illustrations of abysmal quality 2006-11-26
Comment: Ridiculously poor illustrations largely consisting of simple line drawings that have the appearance of third generation photocopies.

Summary: Absolutely perfect! 2006-11-10
Comment: The book I ordered was brand new and I saved so much from the retail price! The best part was that it qualified for free shipping and it came within 4 days!! What a surprise that was! I have to say that I am extremely delighted to use amazon and this seller.
