With which bookbinding books should you start? Read this before you go shopping
When I came back to Peru after graduating from college, I wanted to learn more about bookbinding. But there was nowhere to turn... no teachers or courses to take. So I searched for knowledge in book. I bought what I could find bookstores in Lima and online.
These 3 books have accompanied me on my learning journey, and for that I love them and recommend them.
Making Books. This is the unofficial bookbinding bible! London Center of the Book did a great job on this book, I use it a lot in my classes and I always recommend it to all my students. You can get it on the Bookdepository or Amazon. Making Handmade Books by Alisa Golden.
You can get it in English and in Spanish. This book gives you a broad look at various types of bookbinding techniques. I constantly review it to fill myself with ideas. Any book by Keith Smith. This bookbinder has written several books, any one of them is highly recommended. The diagrams are extremely detailed.After 1 year of graduating from college I found out that he lived in the same city as me.
The first two books that I've mentioned here are great for beginners, or for those who want to reinforce the basics, the last recommendation is more for experimentation. Buscalibre.peYou can get them on Amazon.
