The Ultimate Guide to Modern Calligraphy & Hand Lettering for Beginners: Learn to Letter: A Hand Lettering Workbook with Tips, Techniques, Practice Pages, and Projects

This looks like a good book to practise calligraphy. Bought it with some pens, too. Good book for beginners.

Great book for learning to do calligraphy! It includes a variety of different fonts and letterings, easy step by steps, loads and loads of space to practice. Starts off with basic brush strokes, then basic letters, then moves onto fancier letters, joining the letters, practicing words, and adding decoration. Great book for any beginner or just to practice, and it's a great price!

A lovely book, very suitable for someone taking up calligraphy, clear, detailed and encouraging with plenty of practice space. But it is NOT an 'ultimate' guide, as it only uses a limited number of alphabets. I was looking for a compendium of different fonts, and some of the blurb was misleading. But what this book actually sets out to do, it does well.

Clearly explained woth lots of helpful diagrams and practice pages.

This is my first ever Amazon review and it had to be left for this book.I’ve been doing ‘calligraphy’ for a little while now, sketching with a pencil, and trying with fountain pens every so often and getting disheartened because I never took the time to learn properly. However, I took the plunge and bought this book along with some brush pens and honestly wow. I can’t believe the difference!The book has helped me I learn so many bad habits, and while teaches a certain kind of calligraphy, leaves so much room for your own creativity and to explore your own styles.I cannot express enough how good this book is!(My one bit of feedback would be that a wire bound book may be more useful when it comes to the exercises)

Nice and cheap intro to lettering with brush pens, but the cheap paper lets the ink bleed through making it annoying when practicing new letters on the following pages that have marks all over it.Using cheap paper is fine IF they had not then used the reverse side for more practice work.

It nice to have this book as it helps you to get into the flow of the writing easily

This is so easy to follow I’m very happy with my choice.
