IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENT AND DISCLAIMER AUGUST 1 2018
IT HAS COME TO MY NOTICE THAT SOMEONE IS USING MY OLD DOMAIN NAME DEWALDENPRESS.NET TO DRIVE TRAFFIC TO A SITE CALLED WALDEN’S MINI-BOOKS.
PLEASE NOTE THAT THIS SITE HAS NO CONNECTION WHATSOEVER WITH DE WALDEN PRESS OR WITH ME, JAN KELLETT.
I HAVE NO KNOWLEDGE OF OR INTEREST IN, AND AM NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR THE CONTENT ON THAT SITE.
UPDATE MAY 2016
De Walden Press has now ceased to publish miniature books, but the site remains in place for information.
De Walden Press published Jan Kellett's limited edition miniature books. For detailed information on these click on All Books above.
De Walden Press books were published in small editions. If you like letterpress, good leather bindings, miniature books, innovative book design and original illustration you have come to the right place.
STOP PRESS
NEW for 2015
I was invited to Guest Blog on the Foger Shakespeare Library's blog, The Collation, about the making of Storming Shakespeare: http://collation.folger.edu/2014/12/storming-shakespeare-creating-an-artists-book/
ORIGINAL BLOG: I started a blog, http://booked-out.blogspot.com/ in 2009 to document the making of Leonardo Dreams of His Flying Machine, answering the questions 'how are the books made?' and 'how long does it take to make a book?'
BIBLIOGRAPHIES: Many of my books contain a bibliography. The bilbliography is there for two main reasons. Firstly, the small size of miniature books makes footnotes and end notes impractical, and I need to cite my sources. Secondly, a miniature book can only serve as a 'taster' for a subject, so by listing the bibliography it gives the reader something to work from for further enquiry. I shall gradually be adding bibliographies to the web pages for each book.
