"One Volume Book of Spencerian Penmanship Copybooks - Nothing New" according to Das Englisch von Königin. Full disclosure: this is just a one book amalgamation of the Spencerian Penmanship Copybooks. They've been put together all in one volume which is handy as the original copybooks were for school children in the mid to late 19th century. To be fair, it is good information though written in the very dry antique style. "Amazing book" according to JRW. I admit that at my age I'm finding learning to write in cursive it's quiet fun and it's a form of art, I started to learn from children's books to now the professional version, it's quiet interesting.I def recommend this book to those who want to go professional.. Learn, relax, teach! Such a joy: I'm using this book to re-discover and re-train my fading skill of beautiful and legible handwriting. Doing the exercises is almost meditative. I'll buy a new, clean copy for my kids when they start writing too!
