Customer Reviews

Not as described, quality control poor

The book was purchased as "VERY GOOD" condition. The dust jacket was neatly on the carcass of the book, however opening the book was treacherous. The pages were loose and separated from the spine. The book is going to be retained by me and properly repaired because of the otherwise quality. It was not inspected thoroughly before grading. the content is of the old school crafts and skills, interesting and informative. It will go well in my collection after repair of spine.
