In this small but comprehensive 60 page softcover book, Glen Pownall takes you through Basic Maori Wood Carving techniques, and then the second section deals with Design Elements, such as how to carve heads, feet, scrolls, spirals, etc.

The text is amply complemented with wonderful color photographs as well as helpful line drawings of particular techniques.  

This is a great starter book into Maori Carving, or for someone wanting a small book showing examples of Maori carving.
