Back to Font - Behind the Typefaces You Thought You Knew

Kiss, marry or avoid? Not a question you thought you'd be posing about typefaces, perhaps, but in Back to Font 16 favourite fonts get the full biographical treatment - from 'parentage' to personality, from type 'anatomy' to appraisal of legs (K), arms (T) and even crotch (that'll be the V and the Y...). All so that you can pick your favourite and run off into the digital sunset with some italic Bodoni type or maybe just boring old Times New Roman... Great fun for font fans and lots to learn in a fun and accessible manner. Would make a fantastic gift for graphics and typography students.
