Board Attachment is a practical guide that details the sequence of operations withing the bookbinding process that securely attached the protective covers, or boards, to the front and back of the text block.
The processes include 'cased-in', 'library style', and 'laced-on board' binding techniques. The methods presented are designed to be accessible to all varieties of bookbinder, and a full equipment list is included at the start of the book.
This title is the second in a new series of concise guides covering fundamental techniques and essential knowledge in bookbinding and book conservation. These guides are intended to support independent practice or serve as teaching resources within bookbinding and conservation programs. The Bench Publications is the brainchild of bookbinder Nicky Oliver and book conservator Karen Vidler.

Excellent
Despite being in the US my product arrived very quickly. It was very well packaged and survived the trip with no problems.
Such an important subject
This is good as a reminder of processes if you have already attended some good bookbinding workshops. I would have liked to see a lot more photographs of the processes explained.
I find this to be a useful addition to my reference library. The photos and concise instructions as well as the "handy" tips are quite useful when working on a style you haven't done for a while.
steps are easy to follow for the novice
