Some Chapter Headings:
Leather-Then and Now
Making a Leather or Suede Garment
Selecting Furs and Patterns
What About Mink?

I liked:

• The plain and simple instructions.
• The “clean” explanation of the preparation of leather and suede.
• The list of types of skins and their common uses.
• Specific instructions about which needle to use and how to find the correct machine stitch for sewing with skins.
• Instructions for recycling (restyling) old fur garments

My dislikes:

• Not any really. The book appears to deliver on its title.

Conclusion:
While this book isn’t cute or trendy, I think it serves its purpose right well. If you are ready to tackle a garment of skins, check this one out before you cut.

Would I buy it for myself? Probably not. If I decide to remake an old fur or tackle a genuine leather garment, I’ll just check it out again.

Would I buy it for a beginner sewer? Not a beginner’s book.
