The do it from the farthest is so that you bleed out the bubbles farthest away from the master.

But not all cars go that way. We used to have a Wagner/Raybestos book that actually had the correct specific way of bleeding brakes depending on the car.
Cars with ABS systems also play tricks on you. You can get air in the ABS unit, and that is a PITA to bleed unless you have the correct scan tool that can cycle the system.
