The Book-makers: A history of the book in 18 remarkable lives – Adam Smyth

25 February @ 7:15 pm - 9:00 pm

The Book-Makers is a celebration of 550 years of the printed book, told through the lives of eighteen extraordinary men and women who took the book in radical new directions: printers and binders, publishers and artists, paper-makers and library founders. This is a story of skill, craft, mess, cunning, triumph, improvisation, and error. Come and hear author Adam Smyth tell us about it.
