SUMMARY- This is a nitty gritty basics book that goes over appropriate wick sizes and types, temperatures for types of candles, types of wax, and additives. I like it because it covers bayberry wax properties. This book gives a lot of practical information that I haven't found in other books - I recommend it highly. It's clear that Mrs Wilhelm comes by her hard earned information through lots and lots of experience. This is a great read!
