Modern Mark Making: From Classical Calligraphy to Hip Hand-Lettering
from Quarry Books
Price: $16.49

Customer Review:

Calligraphers buy lots of books. Most of us own a copy of Johnston's Writing and Illuminating and Lettering. We look wistfully in our bank accounts and decide we can't really justify the facsimile edition of the St. John's Bible, a unique calligraphic wonder of our time. I have over two shelves just... more info

The Calligrapher's Bible: 100 Complete Alphabets and How to Draw Them
from Barron's Educational Series
Price: $16.49

Customer Review:

This is the one major item you need to have to be serious about calligraphy. The alphabets are the perfect size for copying or enlarging for illumination(in the old fashioned since, no copier here). The book has great instructions for writing the letters. A great buy!

Learn Calligraphy: The Complete Book of Lettering and Design
from Broadway
Price: $11.53

Customer Review:

I enjoyed reading this book and peruse it on occasion, but I cannot follow it. It is beautiful, yet not practical enough. I believe it is not well organized, that it visually all sort of runs together, and that it should have been spiral bound. It's worth it to pay a few dollars more for spiral... more info

Logo, Font & Lettering Bible
from North Light Books
Price: $21.77

Customer Review:

I can highly recommend this book as it has proved to be an absolute delight! Filled with information, but still presented in a delightful, easy to read and easy to follow way.
Being old enough to have experienced the cantankerous and oft times spiteful ways of early drawing instruments made the... more info

The Book of Kells: An Illustrated Introduction to the Manuscript in Trinity College Dublin
from Thames & Hudson
Price: $13.57

Customer Review:

There is no lack of great vivid pictures to enjoy and the book is of high quality paper. The text is brief and has a nice flow. There really isn't much more I can say that other reviewers haven't already stated other than this is one of my favorite picture books :p
If you enjoy celtic art or... more info

The Bible of Illuminated Letters: A Treasury of Decorative Calligraphy (Quarto Book)
from Barron's Educational Series
Price: $16.49

Customer Review:

There's little question that this is a beautifully produced book, and a delight to flip through. Just fine, if this were marketed as a coffee-table book. The product description is quite misleading, however, giving the impression that the book contains step-by-step instructions that anyone could... more info

Calligraphy Kit: Learn the Art of Beautiful Writing (Walter Foster Art Kits)
from Walter Foster
Price: $13.57

Customer Review:

I got my 10 year old daughter this for Christmas, and she loves it. She loves art, painting, crafts, and her handwriting was not great. She did not like to write much. Now she really enjoys it as she sees it more as an art rather than a chore. Great product, the book has lots of different styles to... more info

Chinese Calligraphy Made Easy: A Structured Course in Creating Beautiful Brush Lettering
from Watson-Guptill
Price: $16.47

Customer Review:

If you'd like to learn to write the "ABCs" of written Chinese, this is the book for you! (That's a joke, by the way, since Chinese has no ABCs.) The book gives very complete and detailed instructions for making the strokes of the Chinese characters, and building them into beautiful characters. I... more info
