This review is from: Choosing & Using Hand Tools (Paperback)
As a novice woodworker primarily interested in builing projects with hand tools, I have found this book indispensable. It covers a wide range of hand tools, describing selection, use and care. It also gives recommendations on how to start your tool collection; the essential equipment and where to find or how to make them.
The text is informative yet very readable. The pictures are full rich color. The author even includes a few projects, such as a workbench, to get you on your way.
Obviously, no one book can tell you everything you need to know about hand tools (after all you can find entire books on planes or saws alone), but if you want a solid basis to start your hand tool collection and use, I'd start here.
