Oak Knoll

Reprint of the first edition. Very minor soiling to the jacket, else a near fine copy. An excellent manual for anyone wanting to learn the basics of calligraphy, or improve existing skills. Deals with materials, different styles of penmanship, and practical calligraphy, and suggests appropriate projects. The section on illumination, heraldry and working with gold is unusually good, and beautifully illustrated. Glossary and index.
