This book provides a good overview to pattern making within the context of the foundry. The principles still apply today and whilst it would appear to be aimed at the novice, there is much for the experienced. Being well illustrated with cross sectional line drawings, the spirit of the book appears to be that virtually any shape is castable. This is an easy to read book which I think will be a useful addition to the bookshelf of anyone interested in metal casting. Although some of the techniques may be dated, it contains much information which provides inspiration and be a source of ideas and work around for solving casting problems.
