From Paper-mill to Pressroom

About the author

Born in 1879, William Bond Wheelwright wrote about papermaking, printing, and the paper trade. Library and catalog records connect him with works including From Paper-mill to Pressroom, How Paper Is Made, Printing Papers, Paper Trade Terms, Essential Facts About Paper, and Practical Paper Technology.

His books suggest a writer deeply interested in the craft and business of paper: how it was made, how it behaved in printing, and how different parts of the trade fit together. Rather than writing fiction or memoir, he seems to have focused on making technical subjects understandable for printers, manufacturers, and general readers who wanted a clearer picture of the industry.

Available records in this search were limited, so biographical details beyond his birth year and publication history could not be confirmed with confidence. Even so, his bibliography shows a consistent commitment to documenting the world of paper and print in an accessible, informative way.
