Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:
This book is splendid, a worthy successor to such beautifully-produced books on typography as - Verlietis Sixteenth-Century Printing Types of the Low Countries. No reviewer, in a review of this length, can do justice to it, or to the range of types it describes. In addition to 150 illustrations, it contains eight pages of bibliography and five pages of index. It will certainly become a standard work of reference for Irish typefacesí Printing Historical Society Bulletin
Includes bibliographical references (p. 203-210) and index..
