About the Authors

Cutting through the Colleges is a guided tour of the many inspiring Kindersley inscriptions to be found in Cambridge University's 31 colleges. The Cardozo Kindersley Workshop has cut these beautiful letters in stone, wood or brass, over some 60 years.

This book is an uplifting journey into a unique landscape of letters cut, easy to read and informative, a must-have for letter form enthusiasts and Cambridge visitors and residents. More information can be found at http://www.kindersleyworkshop.co.uk.
