I have nothing but good to say about BTSB.  Their service has always been
prompt and their quality is tops.  Sometimes, the rebound hardcover books,
with quality paper and a good printing surface for good illustrations, is
about the same price as the rebound paperbacks with junky paper that you get
from Econoclad or Permabound.  I have never had a Bound-to-Stay-Bound book
come apart while many of the rebound paperbacks lose pages.  The only
criticism, and I feel it is very minor, is that sometimes in the interest of
a secure binding, they make the gutter on a thick book a little tight.  This
makes it hard to open it very wide when the book is new.  Eventually it does
get better.
