This large book goes through different methods of printing with step by step guides and shows tools needed. Great if you are learning about different types of printing and want to give it a go. My only critism is that the print examples shown werent very inspiring, neither is the cover.

I feel this is more of an art book than a guide to printmaking. I was expecting more practical information and more different types of print making as it is described as a printmaking bible.
