Book Review: Bob Harris' Guide to Stamped Concrete
Summary: 5 Stars
I found it to be a great book in that it gave me the conficence to start playing with concrete again. It convienced me that no matter how much I mess up a pour, that I can still repair it and make it look good. Most books and instructions are lacking in detail. This book was the best that I have read on the subject and gave me enough information to do my own experimenting. I was also able to talk to seasoned experts in the field and find local sources for many of the products mentioned in the book. I would recommed the book to anyone who wants to get into decorative concrete as a first book and as a Great reference book. If I had bought this book first, it would have saved me greatly in time and money.
