| At 231 pages it is far larger and more comprehensive than Ron's first book. A great addition to any engravers library. |

| I am about half way through reading this new gem and am delighted. There's lots to learn in this book and I am sure I will read it many times. |

| I'm with you guys. Ron gave me a copy of the new book before leaving Reno and it is a gem. Developement of scrolls and layout is something that has long been missing in "how to do books". Who better to explain this than Ron. It's sure to become a classic. |

| I have had the book for 2 weeks. I believe Ron surpassed himself on this one. This is a real labor of love. I have found the book very detailed and easy to follow. I am recommending this book to anyone interested in pursuing this beautiful art form. To everyone in the Guild..keep up the good work. Yours truly, JJ Roberts-Manassas, VA |

| This book is just what I needed, it explains a lot that I didn't know. It is simple yet complete and concise. If you can't engrave after reading and practicing what is in this book, take up another trade. The layout of the book is different, but it works and works well. For a beginner, it is pure gold... |

| ARRRRGGHH, I've been inching my way through my book, diligently practicing and just found out part of my book is duplicated and worse yet, part is missing!!! My pages go 1-124,61-124,189-231. Anyone else run into this with their book?? I've E-mailed FEGA for help. Other than that... it's a great book. Thanks |

| Hi Robert, I would like to know if you got your book problem resolved. I had a time with the printer. About 250 of the books were unsaleable. I tried to sort them out, but might have missed a few. Sorry about the missing pages. Let me knw if you couldn't get this resolved. Ron S |
