Reviews

Can a "how-to" guide captivate even those who don't want to know how to? By all means, yes, if [this book] is any indication.... It's an indispensable guide for those who make art out of the contrast between light and dark. And, it's a sheer pleasure for everyone else, thanks to its many wonderful illustrations.-- (10/01/2006)

How a woodcut is made in clear, easy-to-follow terms... Walker's instruction, in fact, is so clear and well organized that this handbook is perfect for the beginner.-- (03/01/2006)

Readily accessible to the beginner, who will find the instructions clear and easy to follow. This is a how-to book as beautiful as it is useful.-- (01/01/2006)

This manual's keynote is exuberance... much of its advice is fresh and inspiring -- particularly about the use of power tools and various kinds of resins as engraving surfaces.-- (07/01/2006)

The book makes clear the form, so simple at first glance, actually lends itself to a wide variety of approaches.--Jeet Heer"enRoute Magazine" (02/01/2006)
