Second Edition of an Earlier Book?,
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Basket Inspiration for Makers & Collectors (Hardcover)
I ordered this book before it was published because I loved the author's earlier book, Baskets, A Book for Makers and Collectors (Hand Books Press, 1999). I was looking forward to new pictures and instructions for different baskets to weave. What I didn't realize was that this new book is basically a new edition of the earlier book, cloaked in a new cover - with wonderful pictures (only mostly the same as the first book) and instructions (the same ones as in the first book). Even the Table of Contents is essentially the same. If you don't have the earlier book, I highly recommend this one. If, however, you have the earlier one like I do, there is not much new to recommend.

This review is from: Basket Inspiration for Makers & Collectors (Hardcover)
I wish I had read the previous review before I ordered this book. I have a copy of "Baskets- A Book for Makers and Collectors" and the new book is simply a new edition of the first with very few changes. What a disappointment. It should have been publicized as a Second Edition. I chose to return the book.

Basket Inspiration,
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Basket Inspiration for Makers & Collectors (Hardcover)
This was nothing more than a glorified new edition of her previous book with little or nothing new and I was very disappointed. The package arrived in good shape and on time so I'm pleased in that respect.
