Greenwood Spoon Carving By: Emmet Van Driesche

I ordered this book beginning of summer and it came last week and I finally got a chance to unbox it and flip through the pages, it's a fun book, I am a big fan of Mortise and Tenon Magazine, and I like to acquire pretty much anything they put out there for us, and this was no disappointment at all, just as everything they produce or sale, it is top notch and great quality. The book is full of wonderful images and all kinds of information about the history and methods to carve greenwood. Thanks Mortise and Tenon!

Yes, I never knew there were so many ways to hold and cut with a carving knife until I read this book.  I am so glad it's back in print.

I get overwhelmed with these books, I have many on various subjects in woodworking, and I want to read and perform all the techniques! I need another lifetime though!
