It was written at the insistence of Eric Gill, who has contributed an introduction. The author was apprenticed to one of the old-established firms of wood-engravers in London and was for some years instructor in Engraving at the London County Council School, Bolt Court, Fleet Street. The book is bound in the original grey cloth covered boards with red titling on the spine. The book is in very good condition and the contents are tight and clean with no inscription. The unclipped dustwrapper has shelf wear with some soiling. Very small pieces are missing from the corner tips and up to about 1/8" is missing from the spine ends. The top edge is rubbed with a tear of about 1/2" near the top front edge and there is chipping with a small bit of loss on the top rear edge.

8vo, (2), viii, 36pp, 32 wood-engraved figures to text, wood-engraved tail-pieces, orig. buckram backed boards, slightly rubbed and marked. A VG copy of this scarce title. Established early in 1916 by H. Douglas C. Pepler at Ditching, Sussex, the St. Dominic's Press was a continuation of the founder's efforts at Hampshire House Workshops, Hammersmith. His aim was to earn a living by printing by hand instead of employing others to do it for him. From the start, Eric Gill was closely associated with the press, illustrating with wood-engravings many of the press's publications. In the main the books produced were small in a simple format but well designed. In 1940, under new management, the name of the press was altered to the Ditchling Press and ceased to be a private press.
