The pages on modern book production have been brought up to date, and the first chapter, dealing with the origins of printing in Europe, a subject on which new light has recently been shed, has been entirely recast. There are minor alterations elsewhere and some new plates. Based upon the original work by Harry G. Aldis, this manual is for all who are interested in printing, amateurs or professionals, and is the only one to cover the subject. Its chapters deal with the history of printed books from the beginning, with production methods and processes, illustrations, binding and the care of books. There are many illustrations, an original appendix on the development of type design, and a useful guide to further reading."

Cloth, folio, 31 cm, xxviii, [234], 105-189 pp. 3,919 + 1628 entries. H.G. Aldis's major contribution to Scottish bibliography, A List of Books printed In Scotland before 1700, published in 1904, consists of four sections: (i) introductory and explanatory material, (ii) the main list of books arranged by year and alphabetically by author or title within the year, (iii) a list of printers, booksellers and stationers, (iv) an index to the list of books. This National Library of Scotland revised edition amends Aldis' main list (ii) to incorporate, in addition to his original 3919 entries, some 1628 further entries. The reprint also includes a supplementary list of some 189 printers, booksellers and stationers, "but very few relate to proprietors of printing businesses whose names would appear in the imprints of books: Most of the names are those of booksellers stationers, bookbinders, paper- and parchment-makers and Journeymen printers."
