To expand a bit on the comment made by Toxaris and I can only vouch for this on Windows systems.

Apparently Sigil will use the Windows font files to display the text in "book view" if it is specified in the css. It is not necessary to have the font files present in the ebook itself.

I insert the following line in the <body> definition:

font-family: Times New Roman; (pick one)

I remove it on the last pass since there are no font files present and it might cause problems for those few ereaders that support in line fonts.

If you are not using Windows you can try it and see what happens - it can't hurt.
