Originally published in the 1940s; the author; a master of his craft; has clearly and concisely explained the making of both hand and string puppets; and also clearly shown how they may be used in appropriate settings. With the idea of giving asistance to the novice; and help to the more advanced student; the book is written in plain and concise language the diagrams and photographs should explain the intricacies of puppet-making; leaving the individual to fill in the details from his own imagination. Many of the earliest books; particularly those dating back to the 1900s and before; are now extremely scarce and increasingly expensive. Hesperides Press are republishing these classic works in affordable; high quality; modern editions; using the original text and artwork.
