The CIA’s Secret War in Tibet - Book Jacket - University Press of Kansas

Jacket for a 6 x 9" book, printed in three spot colors

Most of the jackets I design at the University Press of Kansas are three-color jobs. We publish mostly history books, and in most cases cover images are historical photos provided by the author of the book, as was the case with this image of the soldiers with the Himalayas in the background. I created some graphic elements based on traditional Chinese lattice designs to convey the location of the story, and also to invoke the maze-like complexity of the espionage operations detailed in the book.
