This five volume series provides a comprehensive
resource of the most significant published essays on book
history in the West starting with the codex and finishing in the
20th century. The editors have carefully selected the best
literature from a wealth of relatively inaccessible sources and
written substantial introductions which provide an overview of the
period. The papers are reproduced in their entirety with their
original page numbers to aid comprehensive research and accurate
referencing. Together the volumes provide an essential compendium
for students and scholars of book history.
