Each volume contains two spreads defining handicrafts and describing some necessary materials. An explanation of the evolution of crafts unique to each country or region accompanies a simple map. The focus then moves to eight crafts, their symbolism, uses, history, and evolutions, with photos of professionally crafted items and their artisans. Directions for an adapted version of each craft assume a fairly experienced crafter. Bib., glos., ind.
