Originally published in the 1940s, this textbook contains a treatment of the fundamentals of leathercraft.
The leathercraft projects in the book are arranged in relative order of difficulty with the simpler ones first, but all of them can be done with simple hand tools. The projects have been selected to provide the students with ample opportunity to learn the fundamentals of leatherworking and also give them ample opportunity to create designs to suit their own interests.
