This is 120 pages of details, diagrams, and tips on putting together cases. There are hand drawn line diagrams on every single page, maybe an average of 3-4 per page, plus some photos. This was written back in the 70's, so the styles and objects are different (cb radio case?) but the overall designs and techniques are universal. I don't know anything about the person that wrote this book, but he clearly was someone who spent years and years learning this trade, and spent a tremendous amount of time putting this together. It's a set of lessons and tricks from an old time expert.
Yes, others have commented, it does assume some experience with the basics of putting leather together, and that's covered in another one of his books, but I won't ding my review for that, because this isn't titled "how to do pretty complicated leather work with zero experience". This isn't the for dummies book, it's a step or two past that. But it's readable for a complete novice.
