Product Description

Customer Response

Art or home improvement?
Cryder's book is OK, but it's not a very good book if you're looking for ideas about a fence for your home--unless you like, and can afford, wrought iron (which is difficult to install, hard to maintain, and very very expensive). Instead, it's more like an art book that comprises various photos of fences and gates. But it's not laid out like an art book, with a few splashy photos or technically challenging shots. So it's designed as if it's an idea book for homeowners, but it serves that function poorly.
