[TheForge] Dona Meilach Author of Many Books on Blacksmithing

[Mike Linn]

That is truly sad news, I spoke to her last summer and she was planning on 
a Mediterranean cruise this past fall/winter. Do hope she was able to go.

This is really strange as I got an email just yesterday on the release of 
her new book on ironwork.

with the success of "The Contemporary Blacksmith", she has spent a good bit 
of time on additional blacksmithing/ironwork books.

may she rest in peace.
