[TheForge] Top Three?

[Bruce Freeman]

You left out The Complete Modern Blacksmith by A.G. Weygers.  At $10 this ALMOST beats out Cosira!

Of the many books on BSing I have, I've read only four from cover to 
cover..
The illustrations are my favorite part!


	" The Complete Modern Blacksmith" A.G. Weygers
	"Country Blacksmithing" C. McRaven
	"Beginning Blacksmithing with projects" J. Converse
	"The Edge of the Anvil" Andrews


If one were to choose three books for reference, there own personal 
choice,
what might they be. I am  only curious which ones will come up 
repeatedly.

A request from a beginner.

I thank all for there participation.
