Summary: A Brief Review of "From Clay to Bronze"
Comment: I have been sculpting in bronze for nearly twenty years. Had I owned a copy of Tuck Langland's book when I started out, the quality of my bronzes would have taken a quantum leap, and I would have become a better instructor sooner. In my opinion, Mr. Langland has an excellent working knowledge of the sculpting process, and he presents it in an interesting and witty writing style. This is the best "how to" book on bronze sculpture I have seen.

Summary: A must have studio resource!
Comment: I am a sculptor, well versed in bronze work and I love this book! Langland has written an emminently useful studio guide for sculptors interested in bronze casting. Whether you are experienced or a pure novice you will find useful information and handy hints, right from the most base material useage through to advice on setting up a studio of whatever calibre. The only thing that I feel might have been overlooked is information on how to tackle the irksome troubles of "drawback" where the bronze cools unevenly and pulls away from the mould. None-the-less, if you're looking for a comprehensive resource, this is it! (I should know, I've read a lot of these)So, buy it! Do it now!
p.s. A supurb comliment to this book is "Patinas for Silicone Bronze" by P. Kipper

Summary: Tuck is awesome!
Comment: This is a great overview of the whole bronze casting process. If I was teaching an sculpture class, I would use this book. Tuck Langland is both an acoumplished artist and an enthusiastic educator. I work at a foundry that has cast some of his monumental pieces, and I love it when he comes to check on his work. He is a very educated man who loves what he does. What more could you ask for?
