Sheila Waters (1929–2022)

A superb book, beautifully laid out, ideal for the aspiring calligrapher and a real corrective for those who have developed bad habits over the years.

Finally, the British matriarch of the lettering arts has a book on the fundamental elements of calligraphy, with emphasis on the foundational hand. Well illustrated with much of Mrs. Waters art as well as those of other renouned scribes.
