Hello everyone,

The Legacy Press is very pleased to announce that it is republishing Jen
Lindsay's Fine Bookbinding a technical guide in a revised edition. It is
hoped that it will be issued late this spring or early summer.

Fine Bookbinding was published in 2009 (by Oak Knoll Press and The
British Library) and reprinted in 2010. It went out of print and has been
increasingly difficult to find even on the second-hand-book market. The
book has been heralded as one of the most important works about how to bind
a leather-bound book and features hundreds of images and detailed
commentaries about each step in the process -- a must-have book for all
students of the craft, as well as anyone interested in expanding their
binding skills.

Upon publication, Fine Bookbinding can be purchased as usual from TLP's
distributor, Oak Knoll Books (pre-orders are not available).

For more information, please contact TLP: www.thelegacypress@gmail.com.

Cheers, Cathy
