Unbound: Book Repair for Booksellers
A desktop
handbook for quick and easy repairs for used books.
This guide is intended to help extend the usefulness of books that have already lived a rich and full life, books that aren’t valuable enough to send out to a full-time professional, yet are too good to discard. Optional solutions are presented, as there is hardly ever only one answer to the wide range of problems abused books can present. Each solution has been found to work adequately in the appropriate circumstance.

"Unbound"
is a must-have for a newcomer to the book business, like me, and even
for the seasoned bookseller. I can't wait to try some of the techniques
you've written about." Chris
Lowenstein @ Book Hunter's
Holiday.
"All the hallmarks of a great how-to book and it will be set close at hand next to my copy of 'discarded'. Robert McLean @ aridium books, Cranbrook, Canada
"I received the book while back and am also very happy. I knew how to do quite a lot of amateur book repair already, but this book provided extra little tips which I had never thought if, and which have made my job much easier. I have used a few of the tips already and am very happy that I bought this book. Godsey -- thank you!" Linda @ Keele's Books & Collectables
"Absolutely! For the Bookseller or the book Collector. Chock full of great 'fix its' mostly using what is readily available around the house. Revised and expanded. An essential reference book!" Joan White @ White Unicorn Books
"Happy to have received my copy of the new and revised 'Unbound" by j.godsey. Great illustrations, they make the book repairs very easy to follow. Multiple choice for various areas of repair is an excellent help mate in getting the job done, in the easiest manner possible. The Contents cover all basic areas, then some; along with all the supplies you need. Love the noir wrap. This little gem should be a fixture on your work table. Buy it! Thank you!"
