5,300 years of book history — in facts, details, and pictures. About rare books, materials, the main stages of book printing, and book creators. New in the series "The Main Thing in History".

The book is divided into four parts. The first part is dedicated to the milestones in the history of book creation, the second — to book artifacts (books and scrolls), in the third, the authors talk about the existence of books, that is, how books live and are distributed among people (all the most interesting things about private libraries, collections, stores). From the fourth part, you will learn about technologies (illustration techniques, print methods for reproducing images, fonts, etc.).
