Wonderful book,
By Dana Pini (Saint Jacques, Quebec Canada) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Calligraphy Alphabets Made Easy (Paperback)
This book is more complete than I expected and it is written in such a way that you are eager at trying your hand at the next alpahbet. Great for the person who already knows how to handle the pens.

Great Resource, Letter by Letter,
By Al the Pal "Al the Pal" (The Fruited Plain, United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Calligraphy Alphabets Made Easy (Paperback)
My wife took a caligraphy class and when she wanted to get a book of alphabets, we went right to Amazon, and here it is.The book has a variety of different "fonts" and some penstroke instructions for each one. There are formal and whimsical styles, that will be appropriate for numerous different applications. She has created awards and membership certificates for several organizations using the inspiration of this book. If you are looking for a source of new and different styles for your caligraphic projects, this is the first book you should buy. It has the greatest variety of practical alphabets that we have found.
