Title: An essential reference - Building Small Boats
Review: Building Small Boats'Building Small Boats' by Roessel is an excellent overview and essential reference for anyone interested in the tools, materials and techniques of building traditional small watercraft. There is plenty of practical advice and great descriptions here to get started. Other books on specific topics such as adhesives and lofting may be desired for additional detail but this one would be the first I would pick up. Consider this book the foundation of a small library on traditional boatbuilding. Excellent investment.
