Book Reviews of Automotive Upholstery Handbook

Book Review: ok, but not as good as I had hoped
Summary: 3 Stars

The book is outdated and not in color. My 2 biggest complaints. Also, as mentioned earlier the pictures are too poor to make out what the author is trying to show. Furthermore, I'd like to see more pictures and less diluted text. Also the section on fabrics is poor. I haven't finished yet, but I have questions I would like to have answered. However, the custom upholstery seems to be a lot better, but the experience is far beyond this text. Overall, without having read any other upholstery books I have little for comparison, but I would see if there's an alternative before telling a friend to buy it.
