5.0 out of 5 stars Read it, learn it, read it again., November 26, 2008

By	Deborah K. Dobbins "Five By Five" (Indianapolis, IN) - See all my reviews

This is a book the every serious FDE needs on their reference shelf to refer to over and over again and for any student this is a must have item. I have been involved in FDE for too many years now and had never seen or heard of the 3w. I won't give away the 3w but it served as a faint reminder to me that this is NOT a field that you can master overnight and you will learn new things along the way. Forgery is covered in great detail as well as pen strokes, pressure and different ink markings.

You will definitely use this over and over again. I don't like the price tag, but it will pay for itself in the long run.
