Produktbeschreibung
A detailed guide to the alternative ways to lay out and draw up a genealogical chart, up through the production of a finished document for display on the wall or in a book A family tree chart can be purely functional, to convey its information in a clear and easily accessible manner, or it can be a highly decorative, carefully written, and illustrated piece of artwork, and this very practical do-it-yourself manual offers a full range of options and methods. Layout solutions are given for multiple marriages, natural children, intermarriage, doubtful information, and so on. Designs that ensure good proportions and clarity are described, including left-to-right layouts, circular or semicircular designs, tree-shaped charts, boxed frameworks, and direct lines of descent. The book discusses the most attractive, longest-lasting choices of paper and writing materials as well as different styles of lettering, decorative titles, borders, illustrations, and coats of arms. It also describes ways of expanding the pedigree information in book form, gives details of simple home-binding methods, and covers techniques of archival storage or of display of a chart in a frame or on rollers.
