A reference book for all darkroom addicts
This is a fantasic book. So full of information and advice.

Simple things such as the use of test strips and contact sheets are explained properly, definitely a "don't leave home without" technique to better pictures.

More complicated techniques are also suberbly dealt with - using bleaches to alter highlights for instance. Even the chemicals themseleves are explained and the mixing instructions.

The giant f-stop printing chart is excellent as are the other reference lists.

Don't expect to read this book from cover-to-cover. Its a reference book. Have problem, look it up in here and see how to improve things.

A must for anyone who, like me, spends hours in their darkroom trying to get 'the one print' that makes it worthwhile!

Very important book !
I must recommend this title for all wich are trying to realize his own darkroom technique. All aspects of printing are explained and many sample photos ...

excellent material!!
I find myself consulting this book more than Ansel Adams "The Print." The most in-depth source of information on lith printing I have ever seen. Excellent!
