Nicely laid out book
The book has a lot of color photos and drawings to illustrate what is being discussed and has some projects as well. Has sections on metals and tools. This was a gift for my son and he was very pleased with it and the fact that it was spiral bound so he doesnt have to worry about propping the book open. Would recommend. MM

Find something better
This book contradicts itself on several different things. It’s not very informative, and the steps are kind of out of order.

Excellent reference book for the beginner blacksmith
I recently became what's referred to as a backyard blacksmith and bought this book after a 1 day induction course with a qualified blacksmith. This book lays out the fundamentals in a clear and methodical way and has some good beginner projects to get you started with. If you do a course or look up instructional videos online I still highly recommend this book as a reference guide. Happy hammering!

the book for beginners
Just what you and I are looking for. Bought this and a couple of other books to give me a basic foundation in the knowledge, skills and tools required to get started. The detailed explanations, alongside the images, make it clear to the reader how to proceed step by step. Skill sets develop incrementally along with each project, increasing the readers competency from basic hammer skills to forge welding. Great news if you have no idea where to start. The Author knows his stuff and he makes the journey fun to learn.
