Summary From floral patterns to cityscapes, the boldest book designs of a golden age are gathered here in full color. At the turn of the century, book design was more than a craft; it was a labor of love. Readers accustomed to today's more utilitarian book covers will find breathtaking images here. The diversity and ingenuity of the artwork will capture the imagination of book lovers and collectors alike--and anyone who enjoys engaging design--Product description.
