This book is good in some respects but does not live up to expectations. The patterns included are barely usable and seem incomplete. The first page of patterns is impossible to copy for use since there are patterns on both sides of the paper. I guess this made the book cheaper to produce with no consideration for the end user. Very disappointing.
This book is somewhat outdated, though would be very informative for a beginner. I didn't find much inside that I didn't allready know. There are some nice patterns inside.
As a novice at lead came, I looked at several books to help learn the process. This book is thorough, easy to read and follow and has the best pictures to clearly show every step.
This book filled in all my gaps in knowledge. I'll use it over and over again I'm sure. I've been waiting to make a repair and now I feel like I can do it.
