Good book suggestions

[Muggsy1776]

I'm looking for a suggestion on a good book on pens and turning. I've been watching a lot on the internet, and catalogs galore, but I'm looking for a good book with pictures of the different pen styles and how they should look (shapes, curves, etc).

I've done a handful of pens now, and I'm getting more excited with each one. Great- i'm hooked.

Barry Gross has a couple of good books and recently released a dvd.

This site has all you need for turning ideas. If you don't see it ask. There are a couple of good magazines like Pen World and Stylus which occasionally feature one of our members and always have some trendy designs. Another book I refer to frequently for ideas is Fountain Pens Past and Present by Paul Erano. Look at the photos in the members gallery and you will find more and better pictures than any pen turning book I have seen.
