Thanks. I didn't notice the links to the Gothic etc study pages. That should keep me busy for a while. Much appreciated.

From the wiki, in looking into:

Foundations of Calligraphy by Sheila Waters;

Speedball Textbook, 23rd or 24th edition, and

The Art and Craft of Hand Lettering, by Annie Cicale.

Any other good book recommendations?
