Beautiful, Inspiring, Showcase of Art

Little Book of Book Making-Timeless Techniques and Fresh Ideas for Beautiful Handmade Books is not a "how-to book" for beginners, but instead an inspiration book.It is a beautifully illustrated book that showcases various artists and the techniques, material and styles that they employ in their art. The beautiful pictures and illustrations make this a perfect gallery of hand bound books.
As someone who has very little background in making books, I find the tutorials at the back of the book overwhelming. I appreciate that there is a list of resources, including websites to find the beginning instructions that I need.
Overall, I think this is a beautiful collection of art and I am inspired to learn more about book making.
I received this book from www.bloggingforbooks.com in exchange for this review.
