Research publications all use perfect binding followed by a hardcover
to finish and to ensure the book was long lasting.
An investigation into history book
layouts (from the library) was needed to try and get a matching theme.
What’s really aesthetically pleasing about these books, most surprisingly is how well laid out the content is,
especially in the more older history books, to fully give
all the glory to the images.
The format of the layouts seems to be a page split into thirds, two thirds for text and the last for a bar which contains a description of the images. This bar is mostly on the left hand side and when there's room, it goes under neath the image.

I really love this page, it's a great opener, and I the mix of the old fresco with a new quote would be a nice way to open up my book.
