Along this line, this week end I was approached by a young man (15) and 
his mother to apprentice under me.  As he seemed genuine I am willing to 
work with him awhile.  To get him started I would like to recommend a 
good beginning blacksmiths book that is still in print, such as from 
Norm or somewhere.  Any suggestions?
