  A compact and charming history of the beloved handcrafted font by the New York Times bestselling author of Just My Type. 
   
   
   
  Albertus, first carved on a bronze tablet in the 1930s by German Jewish refugee Berthold Wolpe, has proved to be one of the most enduring handcrafted typefaces in the world. It is at once modern and timeless, authoritative and whimsical—renowned as the typeface of London Street signs, David Bowie albums, and Star Wars movie posters. In this unique celebration, bestselling author Simon Garfield charts the story of the creation of Albertus, its innumerable and vibrant uses, and the erratic brilliance of its designer, as recounted by Wolpe's children. Through his exploration of this singular font, Garfield grapples with one of the most fundamental artistic questions: what makes great art not only survive but flourish in each new age and medium?

  It Was Just a Date... I Was Kidnapped by DJ Jacobsen is a deeply personal and powerful memoir about survival, healing, and the extraordinary resilience of the human spirit. 
  For decades, the author carried a secret that shaped every step of her life. What began as an ordinary date turned into a traumatic kidnapping that left lasting scars, emotional, psychological, and spiritual. Living in fear for years, she struggled to build a life while silently carrying the weight of what happened. 
  Through a series of reflective stories, memories, and spiritual revelations, Jacobsen takes readers on a journey across time, from her early life and career as an educator to the quiet battles fought within her own mind. Along the way, she confronts trauma, explores faith and meditation, and ultimately discovers a path toward healing and purpose. 
  A turning point arrives during a solitary retreat in Mexico, where moments of stillness, nature, and reflection awaken something profound within her. In those quiet spaces between ocean waves and memories, she begins to reclaim her voice and confront the story she had long been afraid to tell. 
  Written with honesty, vulnerability, and spiritual insight, It Was Just a Date... I Was Kidnapped is more than a memoir. It is a testament to survival, the search for truth, and the courage it takes to speak out after years of silence. 
  This unforgettable narrative invites readers to reflect on trauma, resilience, and the mysterious ways healing can arrive when we least expect it.
