Book design brief

This book is an updated edition, so the design had to be roughly based on the previous edition. The larger illustrations were drawn by ?????, the smaller illustrations had to be sourced for free from Dover books of stock illustration and where necessary adapted by Colin Hall to convey the ‘correct’ meaning.
