Lavishly illustrated with scores of photos of ancient lutes and hundreds of step-by-step photos of Lundberg's lute building techniques start to finish, [this] is by far the most comprehensive and authoritative work on the subject of understanding and constructing authentic lutes."Illustrated with charts, drawings and photographs by Robert Lundberg and Jonathon Peterson.
