Written in 1996, Henry offers in 289 pages what is basically a very organized version of what one might call a scrapbook of tidbits he has collected over the course of the entire "Studio Glass Movement".

As a glass blowing teacher, Ed Schmid saw a need for this book in the early 90's, and wrote his first book, Ed's Big Handbook of Glassblowing in 1993. Beginning Glassblowing is the new and improved version, published in 1998 by Glass Mountain Press. Ed's highly enthusiastic and thoroughly informative approach to teaching makes this book indispensable for beginners.
