This book is primarily focused on printing and typesetting, specifically targeting women who were entering the field. It outlines the tools and processes involved in a composing room, emphasizing the potential for women to excel in this area of employment. The content of the book serves as both an instructional manual and an advocacy piece for women's employment in the printing industry. It meticulously describes the various tools of the trade, such as cases, types, and the composing-stick, while providing insights into the workflow in a printing office. The book also elaborates on the skills needed to become proficient as a compositor, suggesting that women could achieve not only comparable skill levels to men but also enjoy rewarding and steady employment.
