SUMMARY- This is an older book, and focuses on just a few specific types of candlemaking. This guy loved his propane torch - it's featured in an awful lot of photographs. The photos aren't as clear as I'd like - but photography wasn't necessarily that sharp in 1972. It's a neat touchstone for the early 70's, but not a book I'd seek for a beginner, or for techniques - there are a lot more comprehensive books for that.
