Book Reviews of The Complete Illustrated Guide to Furniture and Cabinet Construction

Book Review: Another excellent Taunton title.
Summary: 4 Stars

I own over twenty various books on cabinetmaking and this is probably the best of them all for construction. The information contained in this title is not only for the novice woodworker, but many aspects can be incorporated for the more advanced woodworker as well. The book is laid out in a logical 'easy to read' (and understand) manner which is well worth the investment.

It would be nice to have the imperical and metric measurements side by side for those of us who live outside the US. I use my conversion calculator to suffice this minor inadequacy.

Buy this book, you will not be dissapointed.
