Making paper by hand is an ancient process that has almost been eclipsed by modern processes. Asuncion (papermaking, Arts and Crafts Sch. of Barcelona) covers the history and present-day techniques of the craft in a well-illustrated book that includes paper samples. He gives advice on setting up a paper workshop and provides step-by-step practice exercises for making specialty papers such as rag paper made from old blue jeans. This excellent guide is highly recommended for all arts and crafts collections.
