Harcourt Bindery

As America approaches its 250th anniversary, we are honored to share the Harcourt Bindery PBS feature, Made with Love. In a world of mass production, this story celebrates the enduring value of craftsmanship, preservation, and the human hands that transform books into works of art.

For more than a century, Harcourt Bindery has carried forward traditions that have changed little over hundreds of years. Every volume tells a story, not only through its words, but through the care, skill, and dedication invested in its restoration and binding.

Read the blog, watch the video, and take a behind-the-scenes look at one of America’s oldest hand bookbinding traditions.
