The chapter headings and display matter are set in Eusebius (Middlteon's design) and printed from the Ludlow castings.

There are photos illustrating his method of punch cutting and matrix making, and views of his famous Cherryburn Press. Robert Hunter Middleton (1898-1985) was an American book designer, painter, and type designer. Born in Glasgow, Scotland he came to Chicago in 1908 where he studied at the School of the Art Institute. He joined the design department of the Ludlow Typograph Company in 1923 and served as director of the department of typeface design from 1933–71. In 1944 he began operating a private press, The Cherryburn Press. Middleton was founder of The Typographic Society, a member of the New Bauhaus, and a founder of the Twenty-Seven Designers.
