Why read it?
1 author picked Milton Glaser as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
I guess, if you polled illustrators and designers as to who was the GOAT, it would probably be Milton Glaser. On my list, he’s certainly up there.

From Michael's list on artistic doodads, thingamabobs, and whatzits.
