A beautiful book 10 Nov 2009

By MJ Gallagher

Format:Paperback|Amazon Verified Purchase

I have just started carving spoons...... and I'm hooked. It's a fascinating hobby.
I recently saw this book and bought it....
You can't do better.. it really is a beautiful book. Full of tips and written in an 'easy flow ' relaxed manner. The photographs and spoon patterns are excellent.
It's the perfect reference book to get you started.... and something you'll treasure for a lifetime.
