A Note on the Type in which this Book is set


The type in which this book has been set is based on the design of Caslon (1692–1766) who, it is generally conceded brought the old-style letter to its highest perfection. While certain modifications have been introduced to meet changing printing conditions, the basic design of the Caslon letters has never been improved. The type selected for this book is a modern adaptation rather than an exact copy of the original.
