A really well written book. This book is perfect for the beginner or a pro. Really good insight into cutting and the dangers that go with it. I have been in the woods for 32 years and always trying to learn new things.This is one of the best books I have read. The Bible quotes could have been left out this is a book on wood cutting nothing more.
