I thoroughly enjoyed looking at this book as well as working from it as it contains some beautiful pieces of art that really inspired me. The instructions and advice were clear and helpful giving useful tips on working with such a volatile material. I was easily able to create several of the items in the book on my own. It gave a brief but fascinating history of stained glass and its origins as well as looking at the differences between antique stained glass and what we use today. The only criticism was that some of the equipment and coloured glass was quite expensive and difficult to track down but the book does try and advise where it is best to look. Really, after looking at other books on stained glass I was very impressed with the diversity of this one, it really covers all aspects of the art being practical as well as interesting.

Just what I needed to back up my course at night school. Step by step and very clear detailed instructions. Save me taking notes!

I took this book out of my local library so often and for so long that I began to think it belonged to me.
It was only when the librarian told me that no, I couldn't keep extending my loan because other people had put in a request to borrow it that I realised that I would have to purchase one for myself.
It is a super book for beginners in Glass Work and although I am no longer a novice in copper foiling and lead work I still occasionally feel the need to refer back to it.

Nice pictures but little content
The book looked promising from the contents page, but amazingly seems to gloss over everything practical. It tells you the names of things without telling you how to use them. Read more

Excellent
Exactly what I was looking for - everything explained very well, concisely but not laboured. Will soon be doing projects that I have always wanted to do.

Very useful beginners' guide
A well illustrated book which gives clear instructions about a range of issues involved in producing stained glass - either tradition or tiffany style. To be recommended
