This ground-breaking study deals with the creative explosions of book over designs in Victorian Britain from 1830 to 1880. Due to new technical developments many practitioners such as Owen Jones, Walter Crane and John Leighton broke new ground in artistic styling. Edmund King, Head of the Newspaper Archives at the British Library, describes and indexes over 750 books with great detail. Many covers are beautifully illustrated in full color or b&w. This volume is an essential reference work for students of Victorian art and well as 19th- century publishing as binding practices. This work has 210 illustrations
