Trade Review
"I haven't done a great deal of carving myself but this is easily one of the best books that I have come across on the subject. The photographs within the book are excellent; you can see the detail really close up. The book has several practice exsercises and two main projects. Both projects are very well thought out and the practice exercises are geared up to preparing you for them. If you want to try relief carving or if you want to improve your relief carving, I think this book would be worth looking at." The Woodcarvers Gazette, Autumn 2016
