Amazon.co.uk Review:

A comprehensive & accessible guide to creating stained glass
I thoroughly enjoyed looking at this book as well as working from it as it contains some beautiful pieces of art that really inspired me. The instructions and advice were clear and helpful giving useful tips on working with such a volatile material. I was easily able to create several of the items in the book on my own. It gave a brief but fascinating history of stained glass and its origins as well as looking at the differences between antique stained glass and what we use today. The only criticism was that some of the equipment and coloured glass was quite expensive and difficult to track down but the book does try and advise where it is best to look. Really, after looking at other books on stained glass I was very impressed with the diversity of this one, it really covers all aspects of the art being practical as well as interesting.
