The Surface of Meaning. Books and Book Design in Canada.

The Atkins Library - CCSP Press, Canadian Centre for Studies in Publishing Press, The Atkins Library - CCSP Press, Canadian Centre for Studies in Publishing Press. 2008, 239pp. Illustrated. Hardcover, with dust jacket. In very good condition. In this fascinating study, Robert Bringhurst takes readers on a walking tour through the bramble of book design, from the mid-18th century to the present day. Along the way, he discovers a true ?image trove” of identity, culture, and history. Transcending other works on the subject, Bringhurst here creates a truly national survey by bringing Canada's long history of aboriginal storytelling into a context of books a context that goes far beyond the printed page.
