[Woodcarver] Wood Spirits and Green Men...

[sally nye]

Hi Sylda,

I took the book to our carving club tonight.  It was the topic of 
conversation.  They were impressed with the entire book but in 
particular they liked the descriptions of the classifications of the 
Green Men.  They, like I, didn't know the various categories.  It makes 
for an interesting read as well as fun carving.  One of our members who 
is financially challenged stated that after seeing the book, he was 
going to buy a copy for himself.  That spoke volumes.

I promise you are in for a treat.
