Really informative and full of useful pictures to illustrate the techniques covered. Covers everything from types of leather and tools required to advanced tooling. My best buy for beginners to leather working

I Have just recently started my leatherwork journey and wanted to have a book for my research aswell as online, I found that this was recommended by many so thought to give it a chance. Every single thing in this book is useful for beginner to experieced leatherwork. It goes from telling you the basics and terminology you should know when working with leather all the way to multiple ways to stitch and more. It has a lot of things which I keep opening up to when working just to use as a guide and I highly recommend for anybody looking to work with leather

Really good book for the beginner in leathercraft, it shows all the most common tools and techniques a new leathercrafter will come across There are a couple of walk throughs to follow to get you started and enough content to keep you returning to the book for ideas in your future endeavours Recommended

Seems like a great book for beginners.

This is a terrific book with loads of projects. I am just starting with leatherwork and found the instructions and illustrations helpful and straightforward. Well presented with a busy layout that I like.

The book is very much a simplistic, but useful introduction to the techniques of leather work. However, it is thin on textual explanations and very much skims the surface of the craft. It also in quite a large format, but despite the difficulty of handling it, it does allow for large explanatory diagrams and pictures. I do have a complaint about the delivery though, the courier folded the envelope and consequently the book when stuffing it through the letterbox when both my wife and me were at home and very close to the doorway, so I don't believe that the courier knocked or rang the bell. Normally I would return such a package but i am hoping that the book will flatten with use, but very disappointing on behalf of the courier.

Very good

Easy to try

I bought the kindle edition based upon the high ratings. But to be honest it’s a poorly laid out book with limited information behind the high level descriptions. The sewing section doesn’t even include the saddle stitch! Misses out a good introduction section, or any form of structure to the content, not recommended for beginners or anyone expecting a detailed guide to working with leather.

Me hubiera gustado muchísimo disfrutarlo en una edición en español,tendré que traducirlo con el diccionario,así aprende uno algo de inglés también,es fantástico

The book is thinner than I expected - more like a very good quality magazine than a book. However, it has some useful content for beginners like me as it shows with clear pictures and explanations of many of the techniques needed to make leather items. It is not a project book, it’s more of a handy reference book that you can quickly and easily refer to during your learning process.

Me gusta mucho su manera de explicar y así generar una idea de lo básico. Lo recomiendo

Good knowledge
