Summary: A thoughtful refelction on the work of Frederic Goudy.
Comment: Bruckner's work is appreciative and critical -- sometimes too critical -- of a man who produced more type than anyone except Morris Benton. His account of Goudy's life and work is exhaustively researched and hightly opinionated, yet this is a marvelously entertaining book to read. It's also well-designed, as a series titled "Masters of American Design" should be. He gives many examples of Goudy's own typography, and reprints in full the examples of his type designs in "A Half-Century of Type Design and Typography." Thus far, this is the only book on Frederic Goudy. By all means, contact the publisher and demand a reprint.
