Meh. Seemed to be doing too much and providing too little. It covered some fairly advanced stuff (like padstitching for a jacket), but doesn't provide nearly enough detail to help someone really do a good job on a jacket. And it seems a bit cruel and misleading to let beginners think they'll be able to turn out a nicely done jacket with the information given.

Drawings are numbered, but the numbers don't seem to refer to anything, and it's not necessarily clear which drawing goes with which step.

There's some decent information here, but it's better presented in other books.
