Font ID in book title?

[emcat]

Hello, I love the forum, have been lurking for what seems like forever working through examples and workbooks. Thanks to all. I hope this is the group who can ID the type in the word Islam in this book title. So crisp, so elegant. Anyone? I have copied the image address from the link to the book on Amazon. Thanks!

Hi emcat Welcome to Talkgraphics

I did a bit of searching and comparing and the closest match I've found is CalistoMT The book title may have been condensed or squashed a little.

Thank you Angelize - I do have that font on my system and noted its similarity, but I wasn't sure that it was an exact match. The L in particular seems more... lyrical than the Calisto L. The baseline serifs seem to 'plant' themselves on the plane in a very pleasing way to me. Thanks again for checking this out. I'm using PGD7 -Maggie

The font may have been modified.

Scan a larger version of just the text and upload it to What The Font http://www.myfonts.com/WhatTheFont/ They are often good at font sleuthing.

Pretty close.

It is almost impossible to make a good match from a sample that small.
