If you're a complete newbie to woodworking, you may find this book is not the "starting point" you are looking for, but I would advise you to buy it anyway. The information is basic, even fundamentally important to all aspects of the craft of woodworking.
Sooner or later, you're going to need to put a finish on something you've made. You'll have questions about what the advantages and disadvantages of different finishes are, or where (and which) abrasives come into the finishing process.
You may get the idea that you need a shop full of bench planes, from #1 to #8, and a mass of specials. Wouldn't it be good if several experts, who have access to masses of equipment, told you, quite honestly, which planes they actually used 95% of the time?
If you're committed to machines, it would be nice to know that you could get more information than your owner's manual provides about safety, jigs, setting-up for accuracy and, of course, general maintenance.
This book has it all, just as the title suggests. The photos and drawings are excellent and the captions and notes informative.
What I appreciate, above all, in my growing collection of Taunton books, is the balanced view that the editors take. One old-timer always cuts the dovetail 'pins' first; another does the 'tails' first. One person always uses a machine for certain operations; another prefers to hand-work the same kind of piece.
The greatest strength of this book is that it will help YOU to work out how YOU want to approach the craft of woodworking. The fact that it's bargain-priced is just icing on an already delicious cake. Buy it now and enjoy it immediately, and long into the future.
Happy woodworking!

I didn't want to give this book a star rating, but they made me. I'm sure it's fine and very informative, but I caution readers, if you are looking for a real starter's guide, a sort of Woodworking for Dummies, don't get this book. The jargon starts on page one and never lets up. I hope in a few years I'll have learned enough to know what the hell they're talking about, and then I'm sure it will be useful. But right now? Very intimidating for newbies like me.

When I started woodworking I had no idea how little I knew. Each question seemed to launch five more. What tool do I need, how much space, where do I get wood and how do I choose what I need? The list of things I didn't know enough about was endless!
This new book from The Taunton Press addresses these kinds of questions. It discusses setting up a shop, what tools to buy (both power and hand tools) and shows an example of a well designed small shop. It goes on to cover among other subjects, the use of tools and materials, layout, techniques, and finishing.
Also included are tips on buying lumber, an overview of sheet goods (plywood etc.), a good primer on glues and how to produce good glue joints as well as a section on sandpaper that explains in 8 pages what I have seen whole books fail to get across.
Unlike other books that have tried to cover this subject, this book concentrates on the basics and doesn't try to give the reader more than they can absorb. More importantly it covers subjects that others overlook. For example the chapter on techniques covers two of the most important aspects of woodworking, layout and shop drawing.
There are certainly areas where I disagree on a point or two, as I'm sure some readers will and I'm not suggesting that this is the beginning and end of your search for answers. However the information is relevant, clearly presented and easy to understand and should prove invaluable for woodworkers in the early stages of their craft.
