Reviews
This beautifully produced and concise history of Alvin Lustig's life and career is fitting tribute to a designer who synthesized the spirit of his times. Words like "verve" and "flair" come to mind. Book also reveals the effortless wit and joy possible with graphic design. Lustig's style help put a stamp on what one thinks of when one thinks of a golden age of original American design. Terrific volume.
