Jessica Hische provides that peek, and anyone who cares about drawing, lettering, or-dare I say-the power of the written word will be absolutely enthralled with what she reveals. - Michael Bierut, Partner at Pentagram Unlike most focused type and lettering books, Jessica covers a very broad range of topics in very approachable terms. From formal models of letter construction and serif structure all the way through software suggestions, vector drafting, and decorative shading. It functions as a perfect gateway drug to the world of lettering and type, building a solid foundation by addressing the biggest real-world issues. Plus, it's just damn nice to look at. - Nick Sherman
