Item description from seller

8vo (23.5 cm), [10], 20, [7] pp. Publisher's cloth and dust jacket (dj slightly stained and sunned). Reprint of the 1938 edition. This bibliography meticulously documents the career of The Village Press. It begins with a short memoir by Frederic W. Goudy, offering a candid account of the challenges faced by a printer. A brief excerpt from the diary of Will Ransom, co-founder of the press, provides insight into the significant initial difficulties they encountered. Despite these challenges, The Village Press produced books that paid homage to William Morris, who greatly inspired Goudy's approach to book design.
