About the author

William Blades

1824–1890

Best remembered as a passionate defender of old books, this Victorian printer and bibliographer turned a working knowledge of the press into lively writing about book history, printing, and preservation. His best-known work, The Enemies of Books, is still enjoyed by readers who love the physical life of books.
