THE LITERATURE OF THE BOOK.
First edition. This 120-page book was created and published by Logos: The Journal of the World Book Community. Fifteen corresponding contributors helped to cast a useful descriptive bibliography, which would inform the book professions about the best books written by, about and for them. This book becomes the overall critical guide for the world of Books About Books. This guide is an overall collection which covers all book professions. The bibliography would be useful both to institutions seeking to form overall collections and to individuals building personal libraries in their own fields.
