Thanks for the link. On the typespec site is a PDF preview of the font and on page 6, there is a more detailed and also concise summary of the history of the type from Robert Green himself. It's worth a read. He finishes with this.. 'In reading about the Doves Press on the internet there is a danger of consuming the story as fiction. I could not have undertaken this digital recreation or the task of recovering the real type without hard facts. I found these in Marianne Tidcombe's book on the Doves Press. If you have any further interest in the story, please seek it out. ―Robert Green, 6th March 2015'

I'm assuming he means 'The Doves Bindery' by Marianne Tidcombe which is currently selling on Amazon for $287. Almost cheaper to hire a diver and find some more type yourself (I joke) http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/0712302387 http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/0712302387

  No I mean the Doves Press which Marianne Tidcombe wrote after her work on the Doves Bindery. I'll admit it is expensive at around £70, but I've seen copies for £40 http://www.amazon.co.uk/The-Doves-Press-Marianne-Tidcombe/dp/0712347089 http://www.amazon.co.uk/The-Doves-Press-Marianne-Tidcombe/dp...
