About the Story
A discussion of how books were once made (written out by hand) and the story of the Gutenberg family and the long battle Johann had to create type and print for the first printing press and first Bible in about 1456.
Publishing Info
A Printing Revolution was written by Katherine Gleason and illustrated by Kenneth Batelman. From the 2nd printing by McGraw-Hill in 2000. The ISBN is 0-02-185228-6. This paperback measures about 9-1/2″ x 6-1/2″ and has 16 internal pages in stapled binding. I find these numbers: 4,U.4. This may mean 4th Grade Level.
Condition
See photo above. In good condition with handling dimples and bends on the covers. The pages are in good condition with soft bend in lower right corner. No names or other markings. Stored in and shipped from clean, smoke-free home.
Shipping
Generally sent the same day payment arrives. Unless you request otherwise, I will wrap the book in plastic wrap to help protect it from the elements, tightly sandwich it between pieces of cardboard, then wrap in brown paper to send via Media Mail with Delivery Confirmation tracking. See the shipping page for the cost to send a one-pound Media Mail package. Insurance is an additional cost as described. I am delighted to combine postage and insurance costs if you purchase more than one item. The second item may travel for free or just a few cents more — so it’s worth taking a look at my other items before you complete your order.
