| 1. | from Readers Digest Price: $16.79 Customer Review:  This book is full of outstanding examples of calligraphic artwork, some of them unusual. It's extremely complete regarding pens, such as how to sharpen them. And it even gives you an excellent overview of how to watercolor. I own many calligraphy books and thought I knew a great deal, but I learned... |

| 2. | from Broadway Price: $12.03 Customer Review: I am the author of this book and just want to respond that I agree with the very critical reviewer who felt strongly that Copperplate should have been included. I wish so too. But it would need a whole other set of supplies and hand positions. Copperplate comes along much later, and is really... |

| 3. | from Perigee Trade Price: $9.09 Customer Review:  I'm trying to teach myself this beautiful art. This book is certainly not for the beginner. The concept of a new alphabet each week and weekly projects is a great one, however there isn't enough instruction on materials or form to make it very helpful to those of us new to this art. I'll keep it for... |

| 5. | from Alpha Price: $13.22 Customer Review:  I am a relative novice of calligraphy, and, have of late, purchased several books to work towards improving my skills. This book sounded much better in theory than it was in practice. First of all, it only demonstrate six fonts, and while it certainly examines those six fonts in depth, it is still a... |

| 6. | from Barron's Educational Series Price: $16.47 Customer Review: I need already to be a calligrapher in order to enjoy this 100 alphabets. Only two pages are dedicated to each of them. It is not enough if youa have not practiced previously the art of writing. |

| 8. | from Usborne Books Customer Review: The last reviewer gave this book only 2 stars stating that it's really intended for kids. Well yes, it's called a "Kid Kit" for a reason. My daughter loved this and it was a perfect introduction to calligraphy on a basic level. It comes with pens which is great because that saved us from having to... |

| 10. | from Houghton Mifflin/Walter Lorraine Books Price: $9.95 Customer Review:  I bought this book twenty years ago while in college because it was so well illustrated, and it did such a great job of answering questions I had about how castles were built and arranged. I haven't looked at it since, but save dit because I knew someday my kids would love it as much as I did. |
