The Handwriting Book — Copperplate, Italic & Gothic Practice Sheets

Beautiful handwriting is a skill, not a gift.

Seventeen pages of proper practice sheets — ruled, slanted and ghosted, so you trace, then copy, then cover.

Copperplate minuscules and capitals, on true 55° slant guides. Italic, the practical hand that survives being written at speed. Gothic capitals for envelopes and title pages.

Plus the six warm-up drills that actually build the movement (ovals, overturns, compounds), a page on how to sit and tilt the paper, envelope-addressing practice, and two free-practice sheets to reprint forever.

The one thing to fix first isn’t letter shapes — it’s consistent x-height. The book says so on page three, and explains why.

Includes left-handed guidance, which most practice books simply forget.
