Bookbinding and the English Novel from Aphra Behn to Jane Austen

In this fascinating talk with antiquarian bookseller Stuart Bennett, we'll examine the history of book production in England, including how Austen's novels were originally bound. The talk will start with the hand-press era and take us all the way to classic editions of Austen's novels in the nineteenth century to show the art and science of bookbinding.
