A great book for beginners - By: , 18 Jan 2005
This book is reallly easy to use. It has a brief overview of Chinese writing history & then it goes in to the writing of the characters. It teaches you about different strokes that form the characters & also shows you how to draw the strokes in order. There is also the simplified version of the characters as well next to the traditional characters. It is easy to read, understand & learn. A very good book for a beginner. I'm enjoying the book!

This is an excellent book for anybody who didn't grow up writing characters to learn how to write them better. sit down with it conscientiously every day for a month, & your character writing (efficiency, speed, grace, memorization) will improve significantly.
Excellent for the first time caligrapher - By: , 13 Jun 1998
I skimmed this book then had the good fortune to take a lesson in Chinese caligraphy from a native artist & caligrapher. This book followed exactly the master's method & guidelines. Mr. Bjorksten has written a very clear explanation about the construction of Chinese characters with easy to follow guidelines on how to do Chinese caligraphy.
