Reviews
"Stunning and comprehensive . . . an invaluable resource and a treasure trove of inspiration . . . Helpful for easy reference, and many cross applications of design and technique become apparent . . . The progression of drawings on each page, and in each section, reads as an instruction manual for design development . . . You will be inspired." -- Northwest Blacksmith Association
