Springtime in Kashmir uses AR Berkley for titles, chosen because its flourishes suggest the Arabic script used to write Hindi/Urdu in Kashmir.

 

Everything else is Lucida, a very readable font used in Microsoft Office and other software for on-screen display. Designers Chuck Bigelow and Kris Holmes released Lucida in multiple versions, which allowed me to distinguish different types of body text in the book without creating the font salad typical of so many design illiterates.  Text and menus are sans-serif, printed material is Roman, handwritten material and non-English terms are italic, and telegrams are typewriter, all from the same family.
