Default gutenberg e-book

I'm not sure where I first saw this but I thought it might be interesting to not only the beginner but the advanced carver. I've had quite a number of questions answered within it. This is an "Old World" book but quite interesting.

Hello,
another good source is Internet Archive: Digital Library of Free Books, Movies, Music & Wayback Machine search for woodcarving and you can get some nice old carvingbooks as PDF.

Best wishes from Germany,
Thomas

I agree, some Old books are still very interesting to read. There aint no school like the old school.
