Description:"This book was first published in the United States and the United Kingdom in 1949, and became a standard work on the techniques of gravure- that is all forms of art that involve the incision of a groove on some resistant material. After being out of print for some years, though still much in demand, it has now been revised and partially rewritten, with the author contradicting some of his original conclusions...This is a companion volume to the same author's 'About Prints', published in 1962." -- from dust jacket.
