Cary, Jr. reflected on what the books produced at his Press of the Woolly Whale might mean to those who acquired them. In the preface of his first book, The Vision of Sir Launfal, he declared: Our intention [is] to publish only those text which appeal strongly to us, excluding those accepted classics, so completely accepted that they are never opened. Our interest lies only with those who read their books, cherishing them because of the enjoyment gained from using them. The essays and bibliography that follow document the life and work of a man who loved books and who loved the making of books, from the formal to the ingenious and daring."
