### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5.0 out of 5 stars







  
  
    Knowledgeable Author/Informative/Helpful/Easy to Use/Perfect for a Beginner!
  

*by C***5 on Reviewed in the United States on July 25, 2011*

I was new to calligraphy when I purchased this book.  I was interested and wanted to gain a little knowledge and to be given an introduction to calligraphy without frustration.  This is a workbook that provides a wealth of knowledge and inspires the artist to work at calligraphy.  The history behind calligraphy and the different styles are brought to light.  Documents are provided as examples and the author includes her own pieces of work.  The work is gorgeous and inspirational.  Tips for how to begin, how to hold the pen, types of ink and paper, practice, clear instructions and advice, and much more are given.  This book is a steal!  I will look into more documents by the author of this informative and practical workbook.  So much work, effort, and thought went into making this a very practical resource.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5.0 out of 5 stars







  
  
    Excellent and helpful for first-time calligraphers
  

*by L***E on Reviewed in the United States on October 17, 2012*

This book has several styles of calligraphy and really goes into detail about how to create the letters. It also gives good advice about what types of paper to use as well as what pens a person will need. I also liked the section about creating a layout for a calligraphy project. With many illustrations and tips, I am eager to get started. I really like the removable transparent guide sheets at the end of the book. They create an excellent way to practice each style. The spiral binding allows a person to actually practice the strokes by placing a piece of paper over them. This is a great book for beginners!!!!!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 4.0 out of 5 stars







  
  
    Handy practice sheets
  

*by P***R on Reviewed in the United States on September 17, 2017*

Clearly demonstrates the strokes and provides practice sheets for 2mm nibs. This is a great resource for the included styles.  There is some discrepancy between the uncial slant between this book and Drogin's Medieval Calligraphy.
