From Thames & Hudson:
In this wide-ranging book, two complementary voices – one belonging to an artist who looks to Asian and Buddhist traditions as much as to Western sculptural history, the other to a critic and historian – consider how sculpture has been central to the evolution of our potential for thinking and feeling. Sculpture cannot be seen in isolation as an aesthetic pursuit; it is related to humankind’s compelling urge to make its mark on the landscape, to build, make pictures, practise religion and develop philosophical thought.

The sans: Caslon’s Egyptian?
The G is different to that cut of Caslon — no cross bar on the G
I should’ve added: there’s an alternate G.
Good sleuthing, p-k! I think you nailed it. The presentation on the old Font Bureau website makes it look like the G with bar was the default form once. It’s shown as an alternate on Type Network.
