These are books I have read or am reading that are concerned with letterpress, typography and book design. The books are organized in the order I have read them. The texts are linked to their pages on Amazon for further information, however, I would strongly suggest checking with your local bookseller before purchasing the title online. If you have questions about a particular text, feel free to contact me. I would love to discuss them with you.
