The Golden Thread The Story of Writing


Knowledge of writing is held in so many different places by experts on different cultures, by students of epigraphy (writing in stone) and palaeography (the study of ancient writing), calligraphers, typographers, lawyers, artists, designers, letter-cravers, sign-writers, forensic scientists, biographers and many more besides. Indeed writing this book felt at times like an impossible task: it seemed that every decade and topic had its experts, and how could one possibly master 5,000 years' worth of this? I have had to accept that I cannot, but I hope I can give you a taste of it, a broad sweep that might lead you to explore further aspects of the story for yourselves. ~ Page 4 (Intro)
