Customer Review:
I started out working with leather on my own with some help from my local leatherworking supplier. Unhappy with the results I was getting I decided on buying this book and I was not disappointed. The quality of my work is far better now than I could have hoped for. A must read for beginners.

Customer Review:
.
This is a good beginner book. It is NOT a complete text, but has good information and presentation. It covers the basics, and for that it is a good book.
Some of the projects do appear to have been done by a juvenile, and not a very talented one at that. None the less, the information... more info

Mr. Morgan's book is excellent for those who want to learn a variety of skills in order to hone one's leather plaiting and learn the basics behind how a whip is made. However, it does not lead one with limited experience with whips on what leads directly to making one.
For that, Ron Edwards... more info
