A NOTE ON THE TYPE
_The text of this book was set on the Linotype in a face called_ TIMES ROMAN, _designed by_ STANLEY MORISON _for_ The Times (_London_), _and first introduced by that newspaper in the middle nineteen thirties_.
_Among typographers and designers of the twentieth century, Stanley Morison has been a strong forming influence, as typographical adviser to the English Monotype Corporation, as a director of two distinguished English publishing houses, and as a writer of sensibility, erudition, and keen practical sense._
_In 1930 Morison wrote: "Type design moves at the pace of the most conservative reader. The good type-designer therefore realises that, for a new fount to be successful, it has to be so good that only very few recognise its novelty. If readers do not notice the consummate reticence and rare discipline of a new type, it is probably a good letter." It is now generally recognized that in the creation of_ Times Roman _Morison successfully met the qualifications of this theoretical doctrine_.
_Composed, printed, and bound by_ H. WOLFF, _New York. Paper manufactured by_ S.D. WARREN CO., _Boston_.
A NOTE ABOUT THE AUTHOR
Drew Middleton _was born in New York City in 1913. After being graduated from Syracuse University, he went into newspaper work, and in 1938 became a foreign correspondent. Since then he has been chief of_ The New York Times _bureaus in England, Russia, and Germany. In 1940, during the Battle of Britain, he was in London covering the operations of the Royal Air Force, and he later sent his dispatches from Supreme Headquarters of the AEF. In the decade since the war, Mr. Middleton's reporting and interpreting of the Cold War struggle between East and West have earned him a wide and respectful audience both here and abroad. His earlier books include_ The Struggle for Germany (_1949_) _and_ The Defense of Western Europe (_1952_).
