An Inquiry into the Nature and Form of the Books of the Ancients: With a History of the Art of Bookbinding, from the Times of the Greeks and Romans to the Present Day - Cambridge Library Collection - History of Printing, Publishing and Libraries

First published in 1837, Hannett's Inquiry into the Nature and Form of the Books of the Ancients is a small but comprehensive physical history of the book as object. He outlines the forms which books took over the centuries, but concentrates on the craft of bookbinding, past and present.
