hardcover, dust jacket. Bookbinding (illustrateur). 8.5 x 11 inches. hardcover, dust jacket. 180 pages. Foreword by Bernard Middleton. This new autobiography by renowned bookbinder Don Etherington takes the reader through his lifelong journey of bookbinding and conservation. Etherington documents his experiences teaching these trades and traveling throughout Europe and to the United States. He tells of his generous contribution to the conservation effort in Florence, Italy, following the great flood that caused incredible damage to thousands of books. Bookbinding and Conservation is a unique account of the personal and professional life of this important figure in the world of binding and conservation. Etherington's memoirs contain numerous personal photographs that richly illustrate his story. The autobiography is followed by a pictorial catalogue of many of Etherington's fine bindings. This book is an excellent pick for anyone interested in bookbinding and the lives of major bookbinders. Don Etherington began bookbinding at the age of thirteen as a student at the Central School of Arts and Crafts and later went on to study bookbinding and design at the London School of Printing. Since then, he has held positions at the Biblioteca Nazionale in Florence, The Library of Congress, the Harry Ransom Humanities Research Center at the University of Texas at Austin, and Information Conservation, Inc. In 1982, he co-authored with Matt Roberts Bookbinding and the Conservation of Books: A Dictionary of Descriptive Terminology, the first comprehensive attempt to compile terminology from all the bookmaking and conservation fields. More recently, he received honorary membership awards from the American Institute for Conservation and the Guild of Book Workers. His work can be found in collections worldwide.

Cloth, paper spine-label, 4to, 29 cm, xi, 156 pp, ills (chiefly colour). From the foreword by Bernard Middleton: "Don Etherington is one of three British binders who chose to permanently reside in the United States during the past fifty years. Don's detailed account of his early experiences in London as an indentured apprentice in the trade bindery industry is a valuable record of a bygone age which few can now recall. For many who have graduated from a two-year college course with its short hours, long holidays, and usually fairly lax controls, this account of tight discipline and work of a repetitive nature, maintained over a seven-year term, will give pause for thought. Later, Don worked with one of the leading binders of the day, Roger Powell. After the 1966 flood in Florence, he also worked with Peter Waters in England. These very different experiences equipped Don with a sound and broadly based expertise, which he has imparted to dozens of his talented and well-motivated American colleagues in major institutions such as the Library of Congress, and also to hundreds of his students across the United States and abroad.This book is an impressive story of a talented individual who rose from a benchman to become the pinnacle of his craft." Contents include: Foreword by Bernard Middleton; The First Thirty Years; Florence, 1966; 1970: To America and the Library of Congress; Library Disasters; The Guild of Bookworkers; Austin and The Harry Ransom Humanities Research Center, 1980; Finland, 1987; Greensboro, North Carolina, 1987; Introduction to Design Bindings by John Mackrell; Design Bindings created by Don Etherington.
