You’ll even find a whole chapter devoted to carving birds. Abundantly illustrated with over 200 photographs and detailed line drawings, this first paperback edition of The Beginner’s Handbook of Woodcarving will be welcomed by any would-be woodcarver seeking a thorough, reliable, and crystal-clear introduction to the age-old art of carving wood.
