Prairie Lamps

Summary: Not quite as advertised
Review: One of the reasons I purchased this book (aside from the obvious) is because the author's review said that instructions were included for making stained glass lamp bases, since prairie lamp bases were hard to find (at the time the book was published).

The pattern book that was delivered to me had pictures of stained glass lamp bases on the cover, but there were no instructions inside on how to accomplish this. So... in my opinion, it was false advertising (Maybe this is a subsequent printing of the book and the patterns were omitted. Still it was disappointing.)

The patterns themselves were fairly run-of-the-mill. It would have been just as well to have one full-sized pattern with lots of smaller examples.

Summary: Easy to Follow Book on Stained Glass Lamps
Review: This book by Alex Spatz is the fifth book of his I have purchased, and it is as excellent if not better than the others. All of his books on stained glass are so easy to follow and the designs are wonderfully crafted. The book "Prairie Lamps" was very helpful and the suggestions were very inciteful. Excellent book!!!
