Traditional Woodland Crafts (Batsford Woodworking Book) Customer Review: A good beginners guide to working freshly felled wood
Raymond Tabor takes the beginner on a very sedate and easy to follow journey through the steps of finding, using and enjoying green or freshly felled wood. The book is full of excellent drawings and simple explanations which help the novice to understand some of the problems you might encounter along the way. The descriptions of old and very useful hand made tools are clear and concise and don’t assume a prior in depth knowledge of woodworking and the associted skills. Tabor is to be congratulated on making it easier to start using green wood that other books seem to make out

Behind the Glass: Top Record Producers Tell How They Craft the Hits Customer Review: Beware - book extremely dull.
I was very excited when the book popped through my letterbox and couldn’t wait to get stuck in, but to be brutally honest, it is dull as dishwater. Although the people interviewed are undoubtedly fantastically inspirational producers, the interviews reveal mostly “well it depends on the song” type answers which reveal very little about technique or approach. There are a few genuine insights, but mostly it is extremely general advice and nothing you don’t get in any studio based magazine - but in much more palatable doses. It also feels out-of-date to me - so much has happened since 2000. So to sum up, save the money for a new microphone or two and spend the reading time in the studio.
Customer Review: Fantastic
A work of collected wisdom which is insightful, fascinating and inspiring. If you are into recording music of any kind I can’t recommend it highly enough.

Chainsaw Carving: The Art and the Craft - A Complete Guide Customer Review: The author’s photo album and a chain saw catalogue.
Perhaps that is a bit harsh but it was my first impression on skim reading the book. But they are excellent photographs and there is a very clear sequence of photographs and a description of how to carve a heron in front of reeds. However the sequence described in the text did not seem quite logical to me, and it did not match the accompanying photo set, which did follow logic. However I still haven’t passed carving mushrooms so perhaps I am not qualified to comment. It wasn’t the book I had hoped for…
