2. OVERLORD
On June 6, 1944, the American and British armies staged the
greatest amphibious landing history to being Operation Overlord,
the battle for the liberation of Europe. Despite the Allies' absolute
command of sea and air and vast firepower, it took ten weeks of
fierce fighting for them to overpower the tenacious, superbly
skilled German army.

17. I picked this font because I like the Decorative style of it. The letter R has the junction feature to it, and the letter
A has the coess bar, hairline and the apex, this font also has the base line, main life and cap line. I liked the
style that the decorative typeface gives this font because it reminds me of the way and style that the
commandments were written in, in the book. In this font some letters are more like neater and symmetrical than
others and this could suggest the inequality that went on from the pigs thinking they are better than all the other
animals.

18. This font is a San serif font but also could be seen as a decorative font, the font has a cap, mean and base
lines without having high lines etc. This could've been done like this to suggest that propaganda can isolate
you and make you think in a certain way hence why the letters are surrounded by boxes. This could be an
effective font to use for my book cover as it could make it look so that each letter inside the box could
represent an animal on the farm who is trapped under the tyranny of the pigs. The letters have no serifs as the
creator of this font could be trying to get a message across that this font is more to suggest that something bad
could be happening for whatever the font is used for, that’s why the letters are so plain.

19. This font uses a cap, mean and base lines which are the standard in a font, however it also uses a decent line
for the tail of the letter Y and P. The font also uses a lot of serifs, this could be to make the font look Serif but
also decorative as it looks more like a decorative font. The letters look very worn out and broke down, like
they’re about to fall out. This could be very useful for the front cover of my book because I could use it to
suggest through the text that the animals in the book are worn out and they’re lives are a misery and falling
apart under the rule of the pigs. The letters are close together which I could also use to show that the animals in
the book are kept under tight control by the pigs.
