This book is far more interesting than I'd ever expected. Who knew there was so much to know about the alphabet?

An idiosyncratic romp through many diverse sources on the history, development, and symbolism of letterforms with much wry comment.

This work examines the creation, development, shape, appearance and symbolic meanings of the letters of the alphabet. Often studies of language involve grammar or word origins; rarely do the letters themselves receive the focus of attention. Excellent work.
