Overview

This Grolier Club catalogue reproduces 100 of the most beautiful, finely printed books produced during the 20th century, arranged in chronological order. The idea of one book a year, on average, seems almost presumptuous. Yet one must begin somewhere, and celebrate the chosen, rather than lament the many left unsung. The catalogue gives a glimpse of how the generations of the past century displayed knowledge and taste in raising printing to an art. Introductory essays by the authors.
