    A reviewer

    I am very pleased with this book. It is written well and the illustrations are easy to follow. There is a lot of information for the novice to the professional. I recommend this title for any serious jewelers library.

    I Also Recommend:

    I have one wish for this book...

    The explanations and instructions for the melting, soldering, and working of precious metals are wonderful and detailed, but if I have one wish it would be that the illustrations showed instructions of one piece from start to finish. Each chapter progresses naturally, but the illustrations only show parts of the demonstrated steps but includes other pieces as examples and never quite finishes or completes the demonstrated steps. I want to follow these instructions step-by-step on my own, but some details such as polishing and finishing safely seem to be missing. (What sandpaper or grit paper do you start with? What do you use to finish? Can you sand metal and then polish?)
    A much more basic metal working book would be a neccessary companion to this book in terms of specific finish details.
    Other than that, the pieces pictured as examples are wonderful, the pictures are clear and the writing is very descriptive. Sometimes it's hard to find the correct order of instructions in the numbered photographs on the page, but it is clear the author put a lot of thought and time into this book. I liked it despite its problems.
