Superb mokume gane book.

I recently received as a gift a book about mokume gane by Ian Ferguson. I highly recommend it (after having already read it twice). It is comprehensive and particularly informative on the old and newer technology on making mokume gane (i.e. liquid phase vs solid state diffusion bonding). It also offers tons of information on all sorts of metals, as well as patinas. I do not get any commission from the author, it is just that despite what I think I know already, I was humbled by the vastness of the subject.
