Oxford University Press, 1976 4to (30.5 cm), 142 pp, 114 plates. Publisher's cloth and dust jacket (dj little frayed at extremities). With Essays on William Morris as Book Collector by Paul Needham, as Calligrapher by Joseph Dunlap, and as Typographer by John Dreyfus. From the blurb: "William Morris (1814 - 1896) was a man of astonishingly diverse talents and energies: writer and poet, socialist leader, designer and decorator in a wide variety of media, printer and calligrapher, book collector. The present volume is the first to study in depth three major aspects of Morris's lifelong devotion to the book art: his enthusiastic collecting of early printing and medieval illuminating manuscripts; his achievements in calligraphy and manuscript decoration; his personal involvement in fine printing, culminating in the first great modern private press, the Kelmscott Press".
