An older publication of limited use
This book only very briefly covers the styles of; Roman Capitals, Roman miniscules, Humanist cursive, Caroline Minuscule, Unical and some gothic and Heraldry. There is a chapter on spacing and layout, all photos and illustrations are in black and white, with a short section on 'applied calligraphy' which is a very small sampling. Now there are much better calligraphy books on the market that cover learning, techniques, different hand styles in much greater depth. Skip this one and look for a newer publication like The Calligraphy Bible or Alphabets Made Easy. ... Read more
