Review by Library Journal Review

Calligraphy specialist and lettering designer Kespersaks offers 24 one-hour calligraphy lessons, background technical information, and a handful of more ambitious projects. The crash-course approach is a little at odds with this meditative art form, but beginners will appreciate the simple method. This book will appeal to crafty types who want to try making handmade wedding invitations, greeting cards, party place settings, and family trees. Fans of typography, handwriting, and book arts will also enjoy it. For a wider discussion of the subject, consider All About Techniques in Calligraphy. (c) Copyright 2011.
