Book Description

This in-depth profile of Scandinavian-style woodcarving includes a history of the style's use in American and Scandinavian art, biographies of great carvers in the genre, and detailed instructions for a variety of projects. Directions, front and sideview patterns, and step-by-step photographs reveal how to make a few simple cuts and leave large flat planes intact. The lively personalities of such typical Scandinavian figures as Oskar and a traditional Swedish folk art horse are charmingly rendered in the samples and projects included.

Customer Reviews:

Not for aspiring beginners starting from scratch.......2007-09-05

I completely agree with a previous costumer which rated 1 star. While this book can be a shallow photo catalog of scandinavian style figures, it is certainly not real help for the aspiring beginner (the "where-to-find-the- knive" and "how-to-hold-it" issues, for example). I guess one could get similar results by researching photographs through library books or Internet and try to make the whole thing alone.
In an effort to recover some background of artisans related with such carving style through history, mixed with the author's personal idea of the reader gaining expertise with around 40 patterns (which, by the way, are not worth their printed space through 20 good quality paper pages in this book), based only in two previos detailed examples, the author fails in making a final product to cover seriously both issues.
A nice marketing strategy, but a great mistake in trusting Harley Refsal and Fox CHapel Publishing for the next woodcarving related choices.
Not recommended.

Misleading Cover, Useless for the Beginner.......2007-05-31

The cover of this book says "Step-by-Step Instructions & Patterns for 40 Flat-Plane Carving Projects".

What it should say is "Step-by-Step Instructions For 2 Projects, & Patterns for 40 more".

In this 120 page book, there are less that 20 pages of step-by-step instructions. Two projects are covered (I admit, in detail and with good photos) but there is no foundation whatsoever for those 20 pages. What kind of knife do you use? How do you hold it? What strokes are used for carving? What do you need to know about cutting with or across the grain? None of these questions are answered in this book. If you are a beginner picking up this book, you will be completely lost.

The section on the history and practitioners of Scandinavian woodcarving takes up the majority of this book. While it is somewhat interesting, that is not why I bought the book.

Detailed Instruction from a World Famous Master.......2007-01-15

This is the best and most detailed book you are going to find on the subject of Flat-Plane carving. The photos are bright and the steps clear enough to not leave you hanging (avoids being a very frustrated beginner.) For those of you lucky enough, Harley still teaches classes in the upper midwest and occasionally at our nations craft houses. What I learned most about Harley's methods, is you really don't need a bucket full of hand tools. Every thing is done with a knife. Finding his particular knife is not easy. A sturdy bench knife will do just fine. I never carved a thing in my life until I picked up this book. I followed along and eventually discovered what the photo was telling me. Now after carving some more and reading other authors, I can really appreciate the time they took on this book.

Harley Refsal's Latest.......2004-12-29

This book is a revision of the 1992 classic by Harley Refsal. The new book is a larger format with a lot more color. My previous copy had been getting pretty dog-eared so the new one came along just in time. For those of you who may not be familiar with Harley's previous work, his is the foremost publication that describes the history and methods of "Scandinavian Flat Plane Carving". In my opinion, Scandinavia is the origin of the genre that we all love and call caricature carving.

The new book has added a section on carving and finishing the Dalcarlian Horse - the classic horse carved in Sweden for almost two centuries. The demonstration of Flat-Plane figure carving is of Harley's Oskar, an immigrant-era figure. The instruction is extremely detailed and about like having Harley over your shoulder taking you through the entire process. A number of new patterns have been added to this edition.

If I had a limit on the carving books in my collection, (and thank goodness I don't have) Harley Refsal's would be one of the select few.

Easily the Best Carving Book Available.......2004-10-14

Harley's new book builds on his previous book on Scandinavian woodcarving, but he adds much more both in the area of carving and the history of carving. There is the old familiar Oskar but there is also a Scandinavian horse. There is additional information in the history area, a section on painting, as well as an expanded section on patterns. The photography is in color and quite detailed. If you are a wood carver, this book will be a wonderful addition to your woodcarving library.

Excellent Woodcarving Book.......2004-01-31

This book inspired me to start carving again. The history in the book as well as the great pictures of works by the masters of this style including Harley Refsal made this not only an interesting read but also an excellent how to guide.

Is it REALLY helpful?.......2004-01-16

Anyone who wants to try their hand at figure carving...get this book!. It has a few pages giving a background behind this style of carving, but has an EXCELLENT step by step project in the back. I thought I could never do it; all the figures I have seen looked like it took someone years to learn the trade. This may be so but I was able to finish my first figure over about 3-4 days and everyone is astonished at what I have done. Seriously, this book is one of the best Ive seen. Its a "must-have".

Follow the steps and you can do it!!.......2001-03-02

I have long wanted to learn how to carve, and jealously watched a friend develop this talent. He recommended this book to me. A weekend's worth of following the instructions in the book produced three carvings each a little better than the other. This instructive book also mixes the history of Scandinavian Carving along with rich color pictures of completed carvings. Take your wood working to another level. You to can create a masterpiece.

Fantastic! Informative and Enjoyable.......1999-08-18

This is the book I have been looking for! It clearly teaches step by step technique with GOOD photos. The many patterns are all easilly adaptable to whatever kind of character you wish to create. If you like to carve interesting characters, this is THE book!

Great book.......1996-08-17

Harley's book leads off by providing a history of Norwegian wood carving, he then provides a large number of examples that represent not only his work but also the work of many leading artists in this field of wood carving. Harley then provides a step by step, easy to follow, lesson on carving Oskar with over 80 pictures. The final section of the book is a large number of patterns that can be used to carve some of the characters highlighted in the many high quality pictures included in the book. This book will become one of the most used books in my collection of wood carving books.

Book Description

Introduction by Edward Leffingwell.

Book Description

The Information System Consultant's Handbook familiarizes systems analysts, systems designers, and information systems consultants with underlying principles, specific documentation, and methodologies. Corresponding to the primary stages in the systems development life cycle, the book divides into eight sections: · Principles · Information Gathering and Problem Definition · Project Planning and Project Management · Systems Analysis · Identifying Alternatives · Component Design · Testing and Implementation · Operation and Maintenance Eighty-two chapters comprise the book, and each chapter covers a single tool, technique, set of principles, or methodology. The clear, concise narrative, supplemented with numerous illustrations and diagrams, makes the material accessible for readers - effectively outlining new and unfamiliar analysis and design topics.

Customer Reviews:

Useful Reference for Consultants & IT Professionals.......2001-02-25

This book is a compendium of tools and techniques that are routinely used in one consulting engagement after another. The topics are standard fare and are covered in a plain, straightforward manner.

I use this book as an encyclopedia of techniques when I am searching for a method or procedure that fits a particular situation or requirement. I also use it as a refresher when I set aside time for professional reading.

What I like about the book is the wide range of techniques covered - everything from control charts to structured analysis is addressed, with an apparent bias towards project management techniques (crash mode analysis, PERT, critical path method, etc.) It also covers object-oriented techniques, database design and rapid application design.

I also like the fact that techniques are grouped into chapters under sections that cover Principles, Information Gathering,/Problem Definition, Project Management, Systems Analysis (some great material in this section), Identifying Alternatives, Design, Testing/Implementation, and Operations & Maintenance. This makes finding a particular technique easy to locate and to also place into the context of whatever project you happen to be working on.

Why four stars? The writing is dry, and in many sections too verbose. Also, there is a discernible difference in writing style between authors Davis and Yen, which could have been rectified by a good editor. Other than this minor complaint I recommend this book to consultants because it does provide a single source of reference material on a wide range of topics and techniques.

For the person who is interested in really learning how to invest in Trust Deeds, this is without a doubt the best guide you will ever find.

I am experiencing some Deed problems in California and to try and get detailed information from the clerks office is impossible. This book has all the info you need. I highly recommend it!

An unbelievable bargain.......2001-05-22

If you need to change a deed on your house or other real property -- changed your name, separated, married, adding a survivor to inherit -- don't pay a lawyer or title company hundreds of dollars to do it. Buy this book. Read the instructions carefully, fill out the forms and then go to the county recorder's office and file it yourself. Even if you have to pay for parking.

If I can do it, anyone can do it. After finding this book such a great help, I have turned to Nolo Press time and again for self-help legal books. Written my will, created powers of attorney for my domestic partner, even helped my folks set up living trusts. If you read the book and decide you do need legal help, you'll be better prepared to ask questions and direct the professional to do what you want, and to do what you can yourself to save dollars. Just shaving a half hour off a lawyer's time spent more than pays for the book.
