This is a beautiful book with high quality printing and design. The book seems very well thought out as to content. As a former process cameraman in the printing prep trade, I know good work when I see it! I only wished they put more projects in the book for the reader and up and coming leather crafter. This should have been written for those people. That is the reason I gave the book 4 out of 5 stars. What we need now is "The Art and Craft of Leather II" That is to say if it does not yet already in print. I bought this book and I enjoyed the new information and lovely pictures. I also wish that they did not use so much of the book to outline early leather making and use. We need new and innovative techniques to get us out of the 1950s and even 1940s. In leather work and crafting we need something NEW! I consider this book as a textbook so it would have more to offer. I really hope there will be a second book, even a fourth book. Do a series of these books. They will really sell! I do recommend this book for those that have been bitten by the leather craft hobby! As for me, I am always looking for affordable leather crafting books with new content. This book is one of the best I have in my library. Go and buy this book and see for yourself. You will not be let down. I bought mine from eBay books and it was brand new for $17.75 plus $3.99 shipping. A great buy for a book as nice as this one!!!Read full review
