    Excellent Step-by Step Guide to Carving Faces

    This is an excellent book with numerous photos detailing the step-by-step process of carving a female face. I was disappointed that it doesn't detail any specifics about carving instruments. For me this was important, since I am a beginner and have no idea what instruments I would need for the project. I also would have like a little bit more instruction on selecting a preparing a piece of wood for a larger project (i.e. lifesize). Overall, however, I am very pleased at this book. Ideally, I just wanted one book to tell me everything, which is not possible for such a small price. I got more than my money's worth considering the number of high-quality photos and their layout.
