What you should know about palmistry
What You Should Know about Palmistry is number 704 in the Little Blue Books that E. Haldeman-Julius published from Girard, Kansas, and it appeared in 1927. Leo Markun, who wrote many of these pocket pamphlets, gives a short history of the subject, distinguishing chirognomy, the reading of character from the hand, from chiromancy, the foretelling of fortune, and tracing both to India, Greece and the astrologers of the Middle Ages, then explains the standard lore: the types of hand and finger, the mounts named for the planets, the lines of life, head, heart and fate, and how practitioners put them together. His tone is informative and skeptical; he treats palmistry as folklore worth knowing rather than as a science.
