- Many books exist on a wide variety of calligraphy topics, including alphabet and lettering design, business aspects, history, projects, inspirational, and exemplar (lettering examples) books. You'll find such books in art and online stores and in the library. I'm sharing the following books from my personal library with you so you can see what kind of topics are available. If you wish to pursue refining your skills in beautiful writing, you will find more than enough resources to take you where you want to go. I'm proud to own these works.
