Rear cover notes: "The finest works of the penmen of the past deserve study, both because they reflect the spirit of their times and because they can and do point the way for the modern calligrapher. In this facsimile of one of the classic collections originally published in 1913, Lewis F. Day, a leading figure in the Arts and Crafts Movement and a follower of William Morris, brought together one hundred full-page representative examples from rare writing books covering three centuries and several countries. Also included are descriptive commentary and descriptions of each plate. This is a splendid anthology for lovers of fine writing and lettering, and an inspiration to the student of letterform."
