Review: stroke victim - What I nice book . Easy ,informative , Pictures, user friendly.
Review: Best book I've found on the topic. - The subject might be a bit narrow for a lot of people, but if you enjoy woodworking (let's face it, the pros have 20 years of daily experience and aren't going to need books), this book is amazing. With over 30 years of hobby experience, I still learned a lot from this book and found it a far better (and convenient) resource than any other book. More convenient than the web, even. Content is comprehensive. Some comments about "missing information" from other reviews makes me think they hadn't read the whole book. Most joins are covered at least twice. Once generally, to explain why you'd want to the method and what to expect, concerns and cautions, etc. The join will then be covered a second time, and in greater detail showing the steps and highlighting the things you need to watch. Excellent color images everywhere. While this doesn't show every last step in the process, it shows just enough to help anyone with even a little exposure to the basic tools... saw, chisel, etc. In terms of the book, itself, the quality of materials, binding, printing... everything is top notch. Very heavy for it's size, too. You could have this as a coffee-table book if you wanted. Short of being leather bound, I don't know what they could do to improve appearance and construction. I now have three favorite woodworking books, this one for joints, one on tools, and one on the wood itself.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great Book, Poor Condition!
*by T***S on December 25, 2022*

I can't give the book a 1 star, because the content is a 5 star. I did buy it used and the description said it was in good shape. The entire cover and spine was torn from the innards! Very frustrating! I ended up returning it. The content, however was great! Very helpful information. A lot of great pictures and details. I read another review where someone complained about the fact that it didn't tell you what each joint was for...no application info, and he referred to another book that did. Well I have that book as well. While he is right, there are issues with the other book, too. Really, buying both isn't a bad idea. I do like this one better, great details and pictures.
