Just My Type

An entertaining and highly informative exploration of fonts, bursting with vignettes and anecdotes, full of facts and humour - and imparting the origins, history, evolution and revolution of typefaces in an accessible, storytelling manner. Garfield investigates the character of fonts (and by extension, of those who use them), how they impress and influence, how we love some and hate others. He gives a rundown of fonts - the good, the bad and the downright ugly - and leads us, as we learn, to develop our own tastes. Smart and amusing, evocative and accessible, Just My Type will change forever the way you look at lettering. Paperback, 352 pages Measures 18.3 x 19.6 x 7cm
