Best books to learn Urban sketching, in order

Urban sketching blends observation, drawing, and color under time pressure, so the sequence eases you in. Start with confident line and quick perspective for buildings and streets, add value and composition to organize a busy scene, then bring in watercolor and figures — with lots of on-location sketchbook time, since the craft only sticks by drawing in the field.
