About this title

Synopsis

Throughout this guide, written by a calligrapher of nearly 50 years' standing, the emphasis is on the practical. A good italic hand can be achieved by anyone, irrespective of age; every stage is here explained in simple terms and with a wealth of illustration. Much attention is devoted to the first important stages: pen-hold, writing position and pen-scale. Letters, joins, spacing and common faults in construction are treated in great detail, and there is an important section on practical aids in speed in writing.
