Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)Not a lot of real in depth info, experience, or tricks and tips. The text reminds me of lots of magazine build-up articles, "disassemble this part, check clearance on that part, we used XYZ heads, etc." I would rate the information just average. On the other hand, the photography is EXCELLENT and all in color. The book is almost worth the price just for that, but don't buy it with the idea of learning a lot. Frank Oddo and Tex Smith's books are better in that regard.
