Review:

'The book is well and copiously illustrated, so it's hard to see how it would disappoint even the most experienced printmaker' Artbookreview.net (13/02/09) 'The clarity of instruction and lavish illustrations make this book a great starting point and inspirational for anyone intrigued to discover the many beautiful qualities of printmaking. It is also a very useful teaching aid and should be in every school art department.' Printmaking Today (Autumn 2009)
