SIGNED 1ST EDITION -|- GET YOUR COPY WHILE THEY LAST!
Updated and revised in 2024. The book is a one of a kind, not to be missed experience. It is the direct result of years of personal experience, figuring things out for myself and coming up with a workable system to approaching tying that is logical and simple. What makes it different from anything else you've ever read is that it is not a book about tyings steps but rather a book about ideas. The book is a tying philosophy more than anything else. Colour photographs, colour & b/w illus, 6.65x9.44 inches, 216 pgs.
I got so bored with the conventional 'follow the numbers' way that tying got taught and felt there was a need for an alternative approach, hence writing this book".
