Yes, VertexLabelStyle is the Graph option to use to change the size,
etc., of vertex labels.
Although VertexLabelStyle is listed among the huge list within the More
Information section of the Graph page, and although the item in that
list does have a link to a separate doc page for VertexLabelStyle, oddly
the option is NOT listed in the Options section of the Graph page.
Clearly an omission.
