After demonstrating how to make the basic calligraphic strokes, they give specific instructions for forming letters, numbers, and punctuation. Readers will also find detailed discussions of spacing and connecting letters; forming words and sentences; drawing swash capitals; changing nibs; using color; making corrections; and waterproofing their work.Students will also discover an exciting variety of applications for their new skills, including addressing envelopes, making invitations, creating personalized stationery, and transcribing special texts or poems.

I was really excited to get this book, but it arrived with some pages wrinkled. The lessons are fine, but the presentation could be better. Disappointing for the price!

Helpful but a bit basic
This book has some good tips and techniques for beginners. However, I wish it had more advanced lessons or examples. Still, it’s a solid start for anyone looking to learn calligraphy!
