There are lots and lots of books about mosaics on here - but this wee book has it all. It is positively crammed with everything you might ever want to know and understand. The book covers the basics at one end and ventures into the more unusual as it goes along. It covers everything from how to cut tiles, through how to lay them, the effects of different coloured grouts, includes some interesting studies on the different effects gained from changing colour schemes and has literally EVERYTHING in it including setting up a work-space at the start to a quick look at innovators in the field of mosaics as it concludes. This book was recommended to me by a mosaicing-nut of a friend and she was right to do so. It does include a few projects here and there but unlike a lot of books which sound like they will tell you everything and then end up just telling you how to mosaic 25 variations on a bird-bath, this book really does cram a massive amount of all sorts into it's pages. Good for the beginner and the enthusiast alike - I even recommended it to my mosaicing tutor and she REALLY liked it. Don't look any further - just get this book!!

This is an excellent, easy to read and well set out overview of everything you need to know when starting on your mosaic hobby journey. Great basic reference book, well worth buying!
