This is a great book for anybody who is just starting out with wire. Its very informative and inspirational. There is a lot of photographic work in this book making it very easy to follow. There is also an article on basic metal work, which gives you another avenue to explore. A well written book.

This book is also great for more advanced wire workers also. It reviews the basics, plus gives you FRESH ideas on working with wire, not just the "same thing" for people just starting out that you see in every beginning wire book.

I bought this because I wanted an actual book I could refer to when making wire jewelry. I didn't like having to go online to see tutorials, even though they are free. Well, the free tutorials online are much better- save yourself the money and print out webpages. The pictured steps aren't on the same page as the text step by step instructions, so it makes it difficult to follow because you have to keep going back and forth. The projects are rather boring as well.

I would assume there are much better books out there for wire wrapping.
