It has been in print for almost twenty-five years, and is constantly consulted by writers.Here is Publishers Weekly on the first edition: "Henderson has ranged the field of do-it-yourself publishing in creating an authentic anthology of articles describing the nuts and bolts processes, the hazards and personal woes and rewards of the game. Included are the revelations by the famous: Anais Nin handprinting her first two books, Leonard and Virginia Woolf on the Hogarth Press, the late Alan Swallow's beginnings, Stewart Brand on the Whole Earth Catalog -- and more than a score of lesser-known people who've published their own (and others') poems, novels, craftbooks, cookbooks, and even prison anthologies. Enlightening, varied, candid, and zippily illustrated, including an excellent chapter of how-to tips".Here is the latest edition of this groundbreaking work.
