Tangerman, world-renowned author and carver, has gathered together his designs drawn to scale, and his step by step photographs, to enable anyone interested in wood craft to emulate. With hundreds of ideas and treatments, graded from beginner to advanced, this is the one-volume working library on carving animals.

The first few designs can even be completed with a knife alone, while the rest are readily done with a few inexpensive tools.
