The great thing about this book is that gives a realistic viewpoint on becoming a glassblower. Many books present a flowery overview of the art but few spell out the costs involved, the struggles of making a name for yourself in the art show circuit, and how to display your works. I am a glass artist myself and I can relate to this story on a personal level.

Very cool!
