Printed on dark cream handmade paper produced by Hodgkinson Mill in Wookey Hole on Dard Hunter's personally watermarked laid moulds. The first volume covers Hunter's early days as a book designer and designer of stain glass windows, pottery, furniture, and his work for the Roycrofters. This volume contains 194 colored and 65 black and white tipped-in illustrations, many of which have been printed to resemble the original. Reproduced in this volume are many of the designs that Hunter produced for the bindings of the Roycroft books and catalogues and also the cover designs for other advertising publications. Volume II describes Hunter's activities as a papermaker and paper historian and contains a bibliography of Hunter's writing. Accompanied by tipped-in specimens of paper, tipped-in facsimiles of title pages and other work. Dard Hunter Jr. has written a two-page note regarding the production of this book, a massive job requiring 12 years. The book was printed by hand on dampened paper printed on Washington hand presses. The paper specimens were made using Dard Hunter's original beater which had to be reconstructed for this project. This surely is one of the landmark books produced in the book-arts field in the 20th century both from a textual and production standpoint.

Fourth edition, revised and enlarged (originally published in 1857). A chronological history of papermaking with many interesting facts on early American papermaking. John Bidwell states that this book "is the strongest and most useful, on 19th-century American paper, paper patents, paper statistics, and curiously enough, paper mill fires." - Paper and Papermaking: 100 Sources, no. 11. Leonard Schlosser (An Exhibition of Books on Papermaking, no.66 - this fourth edition) states "Munsell was working just prior to the Second Industrial Revolution and used source material (he acknowledges, for example, Breitkopf and Koops). The book is valuable for the light it throws on the paper industry in the 19th century, especially in the United States, and for the service the author performed in recording interest in its development."
