Master the art of pen drawing with a practical guide to its technique, reproduction, and the craft behind line.
This book argues for a clear, technique‑centered approach to pen drawing, viewing it as a distinct and valuable art. It surveys the field’s history, explains how pen work relates to other print processes, and explains how modern reproduction shapes what we see. The author selects the best work from many schools to show a wide range of methods, while pointing out the strengths and limitations of each approach.

Excerpt from Pen Drawing and Pen Draughtsmen: Their Work and Their Methods; A Study of the Art Today With Technical Suggestions
With a certain class of writers on art I am not concerned, since to them eloquent writing is of more importance than honest criticism, and their ignorance of the technique of any art is only equalled by their ability to write of it.

Excerpt from Pen Drawing and Pen Draughtsmen: Their Work and Their Methods; A Study of the Art Today With Technical Suggestions
There are endless series of art books - and endless school of art, endless lecturers on art and art criticism. But so far as I know there are no series of books on the Graphic Arts, written or edited, by graphic artists. This series is intended to be a survey of the best work in the past - the work that is admitted to be worth studying - and a definite statement as to the best methods of making drawings, prints and engravings, written in every case by those who have passed their lives in making them.
