[CE · Rating 4 out of 5]

Helpfully illustrated but relatively brief overview of printing technique, enjoyable in particular for its early-century bossiness.

One of the best things about this book is in the back: there are several pages of color printing with ornaments showing the individual pieces that make up the whole design. Beautiful!
