A nice introduction to the hobby. I have followed Sheridan's plans and constructed the models as he lays them out.There is nothing new in this book for experienced modelers, but beginners will find a straightforward introduction.
I did not receive this book. I actually forgot I ordered it, and was confused about a three-page comic book that was mysteriously included in an order. I thought it was a free sample trying to entice me to buy more comic books by that creator...after receiving the request to provide a review, I now realize that I did order this book, and probably got the obscure comic book instead.So this book is probably quite good, but I wouldn't know.
Do not buy the Kindle Edition of this book - the figures have not been reproduced in this edition. This is sort of important when figures such as "Steps in Creating the Hull" (Figure 4.1) do not appear in the book.

Given as a gag gift, but it turns out its aimed at people that already have a fully wood-working shop. I suppose, if you had a wood-shop with a lathe, this would be a place to start.
