Middle Kingdom Great Book

Binding

Artists:

First Binding: Lord Tofi Kerthialfadsson; Mka: Paul Placeway

Current Binding: Graf Syr Shadan; Copyright: James T. Downey

The Middle Kingdom Great Book has been bound twice. The first binding was damaged beyond repair. The second one, which you see here, is a handsome binding of heavy oak boards with a leather spine. The book was bound before all of the pages had been completed. This is one reason why the book took many years to finally complete.
