This early work was written for the beginning leather craftsman. Intended as a course of study in leatherwork for elementary and secondary school pupils in the art and industrial art fields, it is thoroughly recommended for inclusion on the bookshelf of any arts and crafts enthusiast or historian. Many of the earliest books, particularly those dating back to the 1900s and before, are now extremely scarce and increasingly expensive. We are republishing these classic works in affordable, high quality, modern editions, using the original text and artwork.
