Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Hand Made at the Roycroft Shops, East Aurora, New York
GO fill in the time we printed a book we printed it like a William Morris book - printed it just as well as we could. It was cold in the old barn, so I put up a little building, like an old English chapel, right alongside my house. There was a basement, and one room upstairs. I wanted it to be comfortable and pretty, and so we furnished our little Shop cozily. We had four girls and three boys working for us then. The Shop was never locked, and the boys and girls used to come around evenings. It was really more pleasant than at home.
I brought over a shelf of books from my library. Then I brought the piano, be cause the youngsters wanted to dance. (h The girls brought ?owers and birds, and the boys put up curtains at the windows. We were having a lot 0' fun, with orders for books and things com ing in almost every day.
