PRINCIPLES OF BIBLIOGRAPHICAL DESCRIPTION
Bowers, Fredson
With a new introduction by G. Thomas Tanselle.
Reprint of the first edition but the first to include the new introcution.. One of the indisputable classics of 20th-century scholarship, Bowers's work is one of the standard guides on the subject, providing a comprehensive manual for the description of printed books as physical objects. Although there has been much activity in descriptive bibliography since then, Principles still holds its place as the central book to which those engaged in bibliographical work continually return. Spine faded.
