Almost a perfect work! Reviewer: Michael W Parsons from California January 20, 2000 I am just beginning in stained glass and found the large color photos documenting each step of the process to be extremely helpful. This book is almost as good as having an instructor in the room with you. One additional item - when you go to buy your tools, ask about the Morton System for cutting glass - it's an excellent partner for applying what you learn in this work.

Excellent Beginner's Book Reviewer: Tara from British Columbia Canada December 12, 1999 One year ago I saw this book in the store. I had no experience with stained glass, so I bought the book. Read it from cover to cover. Now I do commisioned work as well as sell in my town and other communities in my area. Definite 5 stars.

This book is the best one i've come across for beginners. Reviewer: sasaies@tipnet.co.nz from New Zealand August 17, 1999 This book covers just about everything you need to know,i have 2-3 other books and they are good but this one has all their information plus a whole lot more,how to make a cheap tool rack,how to store your glass safely, what restrip is and heaps more.I highly recommend it as THE book to have.The patterns are real cool too with detailed step by step instructions and great tips.

Great start-up book Reviewer: A reader from San Jose July 26, 1999 I love this book! I wanted to learn how to create stain glass windows and coundn't find a step by step book . Until Now. They teach you everything from first aid to how to create beauitful works of art. I'm now in the middle of my first project.
