    About this ebook

    THE FIRST ALL-IN-ONE EDITION OF P.R. SPENCER'S CLASSIC PENMANSHIP PRIMER INCLUDING STEP-BY-STEP LESSONS AND PAGES FOR PRACTICING

    Easy to understand yet challenging to perfect, the Spencerian system was the standard for all personal and business correspondence in the 1800s. While modern students are barely taught cursive, for more than a century schoolchildren were dutifully drilled in intricate penmanship using this original primer.

    Now you can follow the step-by-step instructions and practice on the included workbook pages to learn:
    • The seven Spencerian principles
    • Proper pen positioning
    • Finger and arm movement
    • Heights and widths of letters
    • Spacing between letters and words
    • Optional shading effects

    With Spencerian Handwriting, you can add a personal touch to all your handwritten letters and notes reminiscent of simpler, more elegant times.
