Synopsis

Described by The Spectator as “the most interesting, as it is the most practical, book in its field”, this volume sets out the core principles that underpin good handwriting. Fairbank covers the essentials of penmanship, from the equipment required to the techniques used to achieve consistent results.

Clear instruction is supported by many pages of demonstration scripts, designed to show how the guidance can be applied in practice. Written by an expert calligrapher whose books were widely used in schools, it is presented as an essential guide for those who practise or teach lettering and graphic design.
