A boy at the Whittington Press
201751998Settrington York & Saint Paul MN: Stone Trough Books & Rulon-Miller Books 2017. First edition 8vo pp. 77 1; 4 photographic illustrations on 2 plates; fine in original pictorial wrappers. Paul Wakeman son of the paper scholar and proprietor of the Plough Press Geoffrey Wakeman was recruited by John Randle at the Whittington Press in 1986 when the Oxford University Press was in the process of discarding its Monotype equipment and installing computers. With his help Randle ferried car-loads of printing machinery to Whittington. He did not know then that Paul was keeping this diary - it has only recently come to light. The interaction between John and his assistant provides a facsinating counterpoint to the various activities of the press. <br/><br/> Stone Trough Books & Rulon-Miller Books unknown books
