   Curious about the history of printing, from pre-Gutenberg to the present, and would like a book that offers a thorough but concise rundown? You can get a copy of Six Centuries of Type & Printing in a Kickstarter campaign I launched just now! https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/glennf/six-centuries-of-type-and-printing?ref=5lm35l

   This 64-page hardcover book takes you through Chinese and Korean early printing, Gutenberg‘s innovations, and generations of improvements in making type and putting ink on paper. Illustrators are historic and modern line drawings.
