A method of binding a book is disclosed in which the signature, or body of the book, is inserted in a case and is then united with the case by means of a course of stitching extending fully through the signature, covering material of the case and spine reinforcing strip at one and the same time, thus providing a book binding of enhanced strength and durability that will open easily and lie open flat and that allows for any printed type matter or illustrations or artwork to be positioned immediately adjacent to the center fold of the signature, or to run uninterrupted across the line of stitching onto the facing page.
