Most of what VERSAL publishes belongs to one of three series. Each is a single argument worked at over several years, and each reads best from the beginning.
Measure, margins, figures and the stranded line: the decisions made once that govern every line after them.
Letterpress, proofing and the printing trade, mostly as it survives in small shops that were never modernised.
Read Metal and ink from the startRereading, attention, notebooks and the case against treating a book as a quantity to be got through.
