### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Excellent starter book
*by  on Reviewed in the United Kingdom 24 September 2016*

Fast delivery, book condition was new, very happy with service. Haven't fully started into the world of leatherwork yet but wanted a reference point and something to study beforehand. Clearly written with good photographs and takes you from start to finish on tools you will need, techniques and even has a reference for leather suppliers. Leather craft seems to be a dying art but interest in this as well as wood working is very popular and I think making a mini come back. With actual instruction from a teacher in the future, this book I'm sure will become a treasured companion on the journey to produce my own leather projects. I've given the book a 5 star rating to reflect the difficulty in finding a good source material book like this one, nothing is perfect but this is not far from that.
