The first part of the book is a historical introduction, surveying American printmaking from John Foster's 1670 portrait of the Rev. Richard Mather to the influence of Stanley William Hayter's Atelier 17 in the 1950s. The second part covers the period beginning around 1960, with the establishment of print workshops, and includes the working, trial, and final proofs of fourteen contemporary American painters with an essay on each artist's work.
