Barcham Green, the author of this book, is a member of a family which has practised the art of hand made paper making for many generations and is one of the few remaining authorities on the subject. He has written "Paper making by hand in 1953" to place on record an illustrated detailed description of a craft in which Great Britain has excelled for centuries. Much of the text and some of the illustrations originally appeared in "British paper," the export issue of "The paper market."--page 2.
