Letters & Lettering: A Treatise with 200 Examples

By Frank Chouteau Brown

In speaking of the "Roman" letter throughout this chapter its capital form- the form in monumental use among the Romans-will always be implied. The small or "minuscule" letters, which present nomenclature includes under the general title of "Roman" letters, and which will be considered in the following chapter, were of later formation than the capitals; and indeed only attained their definitive and modern form after the invention of printing from movable types...Frank Chouteau Brown was an American architect, born in Minneapolis, Minnesota, and educated at the Minneapolis School of Fine Arts, the Boston Art Club and in Europe. In 1902, he began practice in Boston and from 1907 to 1919, was editor of the Architectural Review periodical.
