The carving of religious figures is a tradition that is thousands of years old. In earlier books Helen Gibson has shared her techniques for carving the nativity and the figure of St. Francis of Asissi. Now she turns her attention to one of the most dramatic figures in religious history: Moses. This strong, authoritative figure lends itself wonderfully to carving. Helen's friend, Harold Enlow, drew the pattern and Helen leads the reader step-by-step through the carving process. Each step is illustrated with a color photograph. The result is a rewarding carving experience and a great deal of enjoyment.
