The catalogue is divided into four sections - books and booklets; smaller published works; commissions and unpublishd works; ephemera - with fully descriptive entries for 21 books, 30 smaller pieces and 110 ephemera. Not perhaps a large output for 20 years except that most of it has appeared since 1978 under the fruitful control of Eric Gee (1978-1985) and David Esslemont (April 1985 to the present). The descriptions are as full and careful as one needs them to be as to type, presswork, paper, binding, edition sizes, illustrations etc. Examples of hand-drawn title lettering, press devices, wood engravings and pattern paper samples are reproduced, often as tipped-in plates. Almost more interesting than the bibliographic details are the comments which offer revealing insights into editorial matters (the choice and occasion of certain texts) and design problems, and make the book not only a useful and necessary reference tool but also a good read. The bibliographical descriptions are well arranged and contain all the necessary information. The notes seem almost too concise, and to remark only upon various disasters incidental to production. While this is refreshingly honest, surely there is a bit more to say. The desire of the catalogue is clear and inviting, the printing impeccable. And with programs such as Gregynog's threatened everywhere with elimination, the rationale offered at the end of the introduction by Glyn Tegai Hughes for the continued support of the press by the University of Wales is welcome[.]
