This book and its companion volume, English Blind-Stamped Bindings, together provide an exhaustive study of the tools used on blind-stamped bindings in England between the fifteenth century and the latter part of the seventeenth century. Consummately researched by Oldham, an authority on his subject, the text is illustrated with 67 plates. This is a fascinating document that will be of value to anyone with an interest in the history of bookbinding.
