Roles Performed
Project details
One of the traps in doing our job is the temptation to read bits of books. This has two down sides: the book is no longer something to be picked up and read later, and it takes many more hours to produce. I knew this book was a winner when I first sat down to design it. From the first sentence I had to read the whole manuscript from start to end.
A master craftsman at work.
