I was impressed with the subject knowledge base and the illustrated coverage of the book's topic matter. The book came to me in near mint condition and in a timely manner. Good job guy's!! This book will be invaluable to any beginner, I think that a beginner would keep this book by their side for reference for a long time. It's a good book overall. And yet, it covers many area's of interest that an experienced model builder will enjoy and put to use, I'm sure.
