Back to Font invites readers into the surprisingly colorful world of typography. Through lively profiles of sixteen iconic typefaces, the book explores where they came from, who created them, and how they’ve been embraced, or misused, over time. Each chapter offers witty, conversational insights that reveal what makes a font beautiful, quirky, or downright frustrating, while also showing where you’ll encounter it in everyday life. Equal parts history, critique, and playful debate, Back to Font challenges you to rethink your default settings and decide which typefaces you’d champion, avoid, or fall head over heels for.
