4/5
I read this book as it was recommended by Paul, I really enjoyed it I thought it was an Easy read, I will say that there is more pictures than writing which I suppose in the context of it being a graphic design book it would showcase a lot of design work, which I appreciated I feel it’s choice of work shown was great and showed what was happening at the time. I’m giving it a 4 as I would’ve loved more writing each artist got a paragraph or two and that’s fair but there are just so many artists to talk about, more historical and social contexts to talk about. But I didn’t write it, It’s a hard task to contain all of history in the book so I’m maybe being too harsh. It’s a great read, another issue I had was legibility, the text was small but suppose my book was a more portable one like the massive ones I’ve seen but even with the colour contrast, it was just hard to read I needed a microscope lol. But aside from that. Good Book.
