.Biography of the type designer ( Gill Sans) and sculptor
An excellent biography which throws new light on the life of this great artist and craftsman. MacCarthy had access to Gill's unpublished diaries which were partly written in code and provide an interesting, sometimes shocking insight into his everyday life. A recent review in THE NEW YORK TIMES concluded "Few men have been better served by a biographer."
The author, Fiona MacCarthy established herself as one of the leading writers of biography in Britain with this widely acclaimed book 'Eric Gill'. Her biography of Byron was described as 'a flawless triumph' and 'William Morris' won the Wolfson History Prize and the Writers' Guild Non-Fiction Award.
