Excerpt from The Alphabet, Vol. 1 of 2: An Account of the Origin and Development of Letters

The typographic difficulties involved in the pro duction of these pages have been so formidable, that a word of acknowledgment is due to the skill and pains with which they have been overcome by my printers, Messrs. Gilbert and Rivington, who have placed at my disposal their collection of Oriental types, unrivalled probably by any private office, and excelled only by the Government establishments at Paris and Vienna.
