CONSIDERATION OF ALL THINGS PAPER
---
its invention that revolutionized human civilization;
its thousandfold uses (and misuses), proliferation, and
sAveeping influence on society; its makers, shapers,
collectors, and pulpers
---
written by the admired cul¬
tural historian and author of the trilogy on all things
book-related: A. Gentle Madness; Patience
<šc
for¬
titude ( How could any intelligent, literate person
not just love this book?
—
Simon Winchester); and
A Splendor of Letters ( Elegant, wry, and humane
—
André
Bernard, JSfetv Jbrk Observer).
Nicholas Basbanes writes about paper, from its
invention in China two thousand years ago to its ideal
means, recording the thoughts of Islamic scholars and
mathematicians that made the Middle East a center of
intellectual energy; from Europe, byway of Spain in the
twelfth century and Italy in the thirteenth at the time of
the Renaissance, to North America and the rest of the
inhabited wOrld.
Basbanes writes about the ways in Avhich paper has
been used to record history, make laws, conduct business,
and establish identities
. . .
He makes clear that Avithout
paper, modern hygienic practice Avould be unimaginable;
that as currency people will do almost anything to pos¬
sess it
...
that the Industrial Revolution would never have
happened without paper on Avhich to drawr designs and
blueprints.
AVe see papers crucial role in the unfolding of histori¬
cal events, political scandals, and sensational trials: how
the American Revolution, which took shape Avith the
Battle of Lexington and Concord, began Avith the Stamp
Act of
1765 . . .
the Dreyfus Affair and the forged memo¬
randum known as the bordereau .
. .
America s entry
into World War I with the Zimmerman Telegram
. . .
the
Alger Hiss
spy case and Whittaker Chambers s testimony
involving the notorious Pumpkin Papers
...
Daniel Ells-
berg s release of the Pentagon Papers in 1971 and the scan¬
dal of Watergate.
Basbanes writes of his travels to get to the source of
the story
—
to China, along the Burma Road, and to Japan,
whose handmade paper, washi, is as much an expression
of the human spirit as it is of craftsmanship
...
to
Lando-
ver,
Maryland, home of the National Security Agency and
its one hundred million
ultrasecret
documents, pulped
by cryptologists and sent to be recycled as pizza boxes
and egg cartons
...
to the Crane Paper mill of
Dalton,
Massachusetts, a seventh-generation, family-owned
enterprise, the exclusive supplier of paper for American
currency since
1879...
and to the Kimberly-Clark mill
in New Milford, Connecticut, manufacturer dailv of one
million boxes of Kleenex tissue and as many rolls of Scott
V
kitchen towels.
Entertaining, illuminating, irresistible, a book that
masterfully guides us through paper
s
inseparability from
human culture.
