He was unable to find a publisher for his book Little Journeys, so inspired by Morris's Kelmscott Press, decided to set up his own private press to print the book himself, founding Roycroft Press. Roycroft was a reformist community of craft workers and artists which formed part of the Arts and Crafts movement in the United States. Elbert Hubbard founded the community in 1895, in the village of East Aurora, New York Video: https://offerup.co/faYXKzQFnY?$deeplink_path=/redirect/ Pick up in NW Boise near Optimist Park off Hill Road.
