My husband has been carving, making wooden rocking horses for many years and wanted to expand into creating leather accessories instead of buying them. He needed a book setting our clearly materials and tools needed along with clear advice on how to use them. This book, at a very fair price, does that. It opens flat at the page he needs and the print and illustrations are good.
