“The story of The Lost Gutenbergs is in some ways similar to a Dan Brown thriller, though in this case a true story. The exciting events leading up to finding the massive cache of Gutenberg Bibles is intoxicating. The decision to bind these massive volumes in a style reminiscent of the 15th Century, complete with wooden boards, is awe inspiring. To attempt this undertaking is really a remarkable achievement in this day and age. Seeing the finished product is very impressive and this book will be important reading for any aspiring binder or conservator who may be faced with repairing or restoring an original Gutenberg in years ahead. A bookbinding tour de force.”
