  Based around 12 specially-commissioned pieces of woodcarving, this book is a guide to getting started, choosing the right tools, using the best carving techniques and choosing the best wood for the purpose intended. The projects include a paper-knife, a bowl, a table lamp, a bas-relief mask, and a fully three-dimensional cat. The text moves from chip carving and letter cutting to wood sculptures, and each project includes a gallery of professional examples on related subjects.
