Colophon
This book was set in Caslon, a font designed by William Caslon, the famous English typesetter, designer, and gunsmith. Despite the continued popularity of the use of his font in books, Caslon’s original intent was for the design to be used for stamping his prototype of the .357 revolver, which had then never before been seen. Caslon was known to hunt foxes, but his deviations in the deserts of northern Nevada, where he rode upon his knees in the bed of a Toyota pickup nighttimes, spotlighting jackrabbits and blowing them away with his experimental weapon, are only now being revealed. It is said that Caslon lost his favorite powdered wig upon bumping into a then-recent flash flood wash, and the wig went unrecovered, presumably, buried under the desert’s drifting soil. The editor of this particular volume was Kevin Sampsell, American author of, most recently, A Common Pornography (Harper Perennial, 2010). The cover art is “The Hawain Tryptych”, by Hieronymous Bosch. The designer was Mike Dockins, author of Slouching in the Path of What the Fuck is That? (Sage Hill Press, 2007), and Letter to Some Person from Some Place (???????).
