Given the abundance of titles on wood finishing published in 1993, librarians might
be inclined to dismiss this one, which would be a definite mistake. Flexner, who has
20 years of finishing experience and has written for many woodworking magazines,
assumes no experience in finishing wood. He provides comprehensive treatment of the
various finishes, application techniques, chemical cautions, and reactions,
convincingly overthrowing much of the conventional wisdom about finishing. His book
gives readers a wood finishing consultant available whenever they need it for the
price of an hour's time. Highly recommended. (Index not seen.)-- Alex Hartmann,
