+     "The @code{octavo} class is a modification of the standard LaTeX
+@code{book} class.  Its purpose is to typeset books following classical design
+and layout principles, with the express intention of encouraging the making of
+beautiful books by anyone with access to a good printer and with an
+inclination towards venerable crafts, e.g., bookbinding.  The @code{octavo}
+class differs from the book class by implementing many of the proposals and
+insights of respected experts, especially Jan Tschichold and Hugh Williamson.
+The documentation discusses methods to organise and print out any text into
+signatures, which can then be gathered, folded and sewn into a book.")
