Gestel, Paula van, Joop Kaashoek, Hans van der Zwan, Henk Schipper, Rob Poelijoe, and Jaap Molenaar MAPS IN BOOKS OF RUSSIA AND POLAND PUBLISHED IN THE NETHERLANDS TO 1800
Houten HES & DE GRAAF 2011 9.5 x 12 inches hardcover, dust jacket 750 pages
This publication originated from a decision to embark on researching maps in books. Maps in Books of Russia and Poland is a unique combination of maps, plans, and views that concerns the historical and geographical works of Russia and Poland published in the Netherlands prior to 1800. Both maps and books are elaborately described, analyzed and indexed; much attention has also been given to the authors, engravers and publishers.

Subdividing the maps according to their regions, this book brings to light the specific interrelation between the various works by differing authors. The comprehensive introduction describes the history of Russia and Poland from various points of view for specific subjects and comes richly illustrated with over 100 images. The cartobibliography contains illustrations for each of the 700 maps described and the bibliography features a large number of title pages and portraits. A large folding view of the city of Moscow (12 x 72 inches) by Cornelis de Bruijn (1711) has been added in facsimile at the back of this publication. Summaries in Russian and Polish complete this publication.

This unusual combination of research objectives should appeal to map and book historians and collectors alike.

Maps in books of Russia and Poland is part 13 of the Utrecht Studies on the History of Cartography. The series has been prepared under the direction of the Research Program URU-Explokart of the University Utrecht and is aimed at both researchers and laymen with an interest in these matters.

(Gill, Eric) Gill, Evan R. ERIC GILL, A BIBLIOGRAPHY.
Revised by D. Steven Corey and Julia Mackenzie. Winchester St Paul's Bibliographies 1991 8vo. cloth, dust jacket. xv, 368 pages.
Decades have passed since the death of Eric Gill (1882-1940) and yet the reputation of this remarkable artist and thinker continues to grow. Famous for his stone carving, wood engraving, type designs and writing, he has also found a wide appeal amongst a younger generation who are sympathetic to his outlook on life - to "make a cell of good living in the chaos of our world." Since the original bibliography by Gill's brother, Evan, was published in 1953, a great deal of new material has come to light in the fine collections built up in the USA and elsewhere in recent years, and this new edition is a complete revision of the original bibliography. It includes not only all the new discoveries but also the material published on Gill in the last thirty-eight years. The number of bibliographical entries has increased by over one third in this greatly expanded work. The book has been redesigned with advice from Gill's nephew, Christopher Skelton, placing greater emphasis on the illustrations, which have been either retaken from the original editions or introduced as completely new ones of bibliographical interest.

(Golden Cockerel Press) Cave, Roderick and Sarah Manson A HISTORY OF THE GOLDEN COCKEREL PRESS, 1920-1960.
New Castle, DE Oak Knoll Press 2003 small 4to. cloth, dust jacket 288 pages
First edition. The Golden Cockerel Press, one of the foremost publishers of illustrated books, was the most important and productive of the English private presses during the period of 1920-1960. This notable work is the first extensive study of the press, based on interviews and the Press' widely-scattered archives. Richly illustrated with sixteen pages of color illustrations and over 150 black-and-white illustrations, this work delves into the history of the press and discusses and assesses its important private press books. Closely associated with the revival of wood-engraving, the Golden Cockerel Press books were vehicles for the work of such artists as Robert Gibbings, Eric Gill, David Jones, Agnes Miller Parker, Eric Ravilious, John Buckland-Wright and others. Unlike other fine presses that succumbed to the Depression or closed during the Second World War, Golden Cockerel continued to produce outstanding books. The Press' literary achievement was as significant as its artistic contribution through its publication of original manuscripts by writers such as H.E. Bates, A.E. Coppard and T.E. Lawrence. This work also reveals how the market for fine books was created and sustained, and it provides many insights into other aspects of the British publishing scene. A bibliography of all books printed by the Golden Cockerel Press is included. SALES RIGHTS: Available in North & South America from Oak Knoll Books. Available outside North & South America from The British Library.

Goldman, Paul BEYOND DECORATION, THE ILLUSTRATIONS OF JOHN EVERETT MILLAIS.
New Castle, Delaware & London, England & Middlesex, England Oak Knoll Press & The British Library & Private Libraries Association 2005 7 x 12 inches Hardcover, dust jacket 337 pages
First edition. John Everett Millais is admired as one of the most celebrated of Pre-Raphaelite painters. Perhaps less known is the major contribution he made both to book and periodical illustration between 1852 and 1883. Many of these book illustrations remain little known today, largely due to the fact that they are scattered in hundreds of 19th century books and periodicals. This important new work brings together over 300 examples of Millais illustrations, enabling this part of his work to be viewed and appreciated by new generations. This work will be an important reference to any scholar interested in Victorian book illustration.
Paul Goldman was a curator in the Department of Prints and Drawings at the British Museum. He is the author of Victorian Illustrated Books 1850-1870 - The Heyday of Wood-Engraving (British Museum Press, 1994) and Victorian Illustration - The Pre-Raphaelites, The Idyllic School and The High Victorians (Scolar Press, 1996).

Govi, Fabrizio I CLASSICI CHE HANNO FATTO L'ITALIA: PER UN NUOVO CANONE BIO-BIBLIOGRAFICO DEGLI AUTORI ITALIANI.
THE CLASSICS THAT HAVE MADE ITALY: A NEW BIO-BIBLIOGRAPHY OF ITALIAN AUTHORS
with an introductory essay by John Ragone and a note by Umberto Pregliasco Modena Giorgio Regnani Editore 2010 8.25 x 11.25 inches hardcover, dust jacket 415 pages
I Classici Che Hanno Fatto Ltalia (or The Classics That Have Made Italy) offers itself as a counterpart to the great work Printing and the Mind of Man, illustrating the history of the Italian culture through a selection of works by Italian authors (by birth or adoption) from the thirteenth century to the present.

The publishing history of a text, whether a masterpiece or the work of a pioneering era, can be broken into two parts: information on the production and dissemination of works such as print runs, reprints, counterfeits, privileges, trade agreements, etc; and the mutual relationship between the press and the readers, showing how the printed book has influenced the way people read and write. Each work explained in the book calls special attention to editorial strategies such as format, font, illustrations, dedications, etc. The Classics That Have Made Italy is not just a list of prominent texts defining Italian history or a history of the Italian book from a typographic standpoint, but also a chronological overview of known printed texts.

The Classics That Have Made Italy provides the edition, background information, references, historical and cultural significance of each work, brief biography of the author, and an index. An essay by John Ragone examining the transformation of Italy from the fifteenth century is included. The book is written in Italian and accompanied by an English translation of the introduction.

Fabrizio Govi, who graduated from Bologna in 1997 with a degree in literature, is an antiquarian bookseller in Modena. John Ragone teaches at the University of Rome La Sapienza and has contributed to a number of books, including A Century of Books, Publishing in Italy, History and Scenarios for the XXI Century, Communication Memory, and others. Umberto Pregliasco works at an antiquarian bookshop in Turin and is the author of several articles on the bibliophile and trade and protection of antique books. He has been the chairman of the Antiquarian Booksellers Association of Italy (ALAI) since 2004.
