See More... Morris, William and Richard Mathews (editor) THE IDEAL BOOK: THREE ESSAYS ON BOOKS AND PRINTING BY WILLIAM MORRIS / EDITED WITH AN INTRODUCTION BY RICHARD MATHEWS
University of Tampa Press 2007 8vo stiff paper wrappers 73 pages
The founding of the Kelmscott Press by William Morris in the late 19th century reinvigorated the world of printing and book arts. Morris's exceptional skill as a designer and printer owed much to his careful study of printing and its history. His knowledge served him well when he wrote his seminal essays on the subject. Richard Mathews, the Director of the University of Tampa Press and a fine printer himself, has selected three of those essays for this new collection. In his introduction, Mathews gives the reader background on Morris's life and work, and also explores the great printer's legacy. Though the book is produced digitally with technologies that would seem alien to William Morris there is a tribute to the traditions of fine printing in the form of a tipped-in frontispiece, hand-printed letterpress. Each copy of the book is individually numbered.

2 volumes. New Castle and Wilmington Oak Knoll Press and The Delaware Art Museum 2004 9 x 12 inches. hardcover, dust jacket. 906 pages.
At the dawn of the 20th century, Howard Pyle was America's most famous and influential illustrator. Through the illustrated pages of Harper's, Scribner's and Century magazines, the American public first became acquainted with the illustrator that they would come to love. Both by example and through his teaching, Pyle molded and influenced generations of young artists who have continued his unique vision of illustration far beyond his own lifetime. Published 93 years after the death of Howard Pyle, this book celebrates the enduring and far-reaching achievements of America's foremost illustrator. Illustrated with over 3300 images, this important research tool represents the complete record of all known Howard Pyle illustrations, hundreds of which have not been reproduced since their original publication over 100 years ago.
Paul Preston Davis, with exhaustive research and dogged perseverance, has produced a much-needed resource for the study of Howard Pyle and American illustration. His work greatly expands upon the data originally collected by Willard S. Morse and Gertrude Brincklé in 1921. For the first time, full-color images (approx. 1.25 x 2.25 inches) of each of Pyle's published and unpublished works are provided in a single source. Most importantly for the researcher, Davis has indexed and re-indexed the information, creating a tool that is as easy to use as it is valuable. This remarkable and comprehensive set of books embodies years of research and will be valued and treasured by researchers, scholars, librarians, and collectors alike. Co-published with The Delaware Art Museum.
