I bought this book hoping to find some nuggets of useful information, and quickly came to the conclusion that this author’s methods and approach are best suited to making ordinary ‘antiques’ salable. Some of the recommended approaches seem to contradict the advice of others, or just appear to be quick solutions that get something out the door. I admit I couldn’t get deeply involved in this book, and as a result perhaps I missed something that would redeem it in my eyes. As it is, this book sits on the shelf and I don’t expect I’ll refer to it much at all.
