Summary "Writing and Drawing Made Easy, Amusing and Instructive" by William Chinnery is an educational guidebook likely written in the late 18th century. This book serves as a manual for teaching the arts of writing and drawing, particularly aimed at young learners and those seeking to improve their skills in penmanship and illustration. It combines instructional content with emblematic devices and moral lessons to facilitate understanding and retention among its users. The book features a comprehensive collection of writing styles, including both printing and various penmanship techniques, each accompanied by illustrative emblems that convey moral lessons. Chinnery provides ample examples for schoolmasters and students to follow, greatly reducing the need for individual copying.
