JoniBlue you’re preaching to the converted, took six books on holiday, managed to get through three in the week.
I was privileged enough to work in the printing with a lot of old skilled very clever people. Even without all the modern machinery I did work on, they taught me how to fold, collate, hand sew and bind a book by hand, those skills never die as long as we pass them on.
