"The Detection of Forgery" by Douglas Blackburn and W. Waithman Caddell is a practical handbook written in the early 20th century. This work serves as a guide for professionals such as bankers, solicitors, and clerks who may need to verify the authenticity of signatures and other documents. The authors aim to provide foundational principles of handwriting analysis and the methods experts use to identify forgery. The opening of the book introduces its objective: to assist individuals in assessing the genuineness of signatures and documents encountered in their professional activities. The authors highlight the individuality of handwriting and the unique, unconscious habits that each writer develops, which the trained expert can use to detect forgeries. They encourage readers to engage actively with the text and practice their observation skills, laying the groundwork for a detailed exploration of handwriting analysis and comparison in subsequent chapters. The focus on practical techniques and personal observation sets an engaging tone for students and professionals interested in mastering the art of forgery detection.
