Very clear, step-by-step guide which should improve anyone's ability to draw this subject. I really like the way it helps you to see your subject more clearly and work out where to start and how to build your drawing up logically. You can dip into any of the chapters to learn and refresh your memory as you draw. It makes something that I found a very complicated process much more manageable. The tips on perspective and using light and shadow really help you to capture the whole scene, while the section on key architectural elements is great for quick practice sketches and helping you to hone in on the details. -- Heather Haigh * Amazon Customer Review *
