Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. The quill replaced the reed pen across Europe by the Early Middle Ages. Quills are fashioned by cutting a nib into the end of a feather obtained from a fairly large bird, such as a goose. A quill has the advantage of being more durable and more flexible than a reed pen, and it can also retain ink in the hollow shaft of the feather, known as the calamus, allowing more writing time between ink dippings. The quill was in common use until the early 19th century and the advent of the metal nib. For business purposes, the quill was fairly quickly overtaken; however, it remains popular for personal use and for artistic work.
