About this title

Review

"This reference has been indispensable to me as a Japanese student. I first bought it in 1999 at my tutor's recommendation and still turning to it when unknown kanji show up. Since I study calligraphy it's also useful in that context -- you can nail down the stroke order of a character if you're not quite sure. Would recommend this reference to everyone." --Goodreads
