After a few days since I posted the imminent publi After a few days since I posted the imminent publication of my first whipmaking book I have been continuing to receive many kind messages of estimate and support from many of you and some questions about how to book a copy.
For all this I thank you!
For this reason, I believe that a further clarification and information about the forthcoming release of the book is necessary.
The Italian version of the book will be available in April, soon it will also be on my website, the price is € 30.00 plus shipping.
But in the meantime, if you like, you can book your copy right now with a simple email at info@giovanniceleste.it or via my social account.
Thanks again for your kindness and interest.
Here is some information about the book.

The book was mainly created with the intention of growing the Italian public and bringing it to a homogeneous level of knowledge with the other countries. So the primary target is not only the Italian market but all those who are at the first experience in whipmaking.
Anyway reading a book is always an interesting eperience where you can find and learn different ways and different techniques and you can found the inspiration to create your own unique way.
The first edition of this book will not be finalized in bring you passively step by step in order to make the whip but more importantly, it will explain you how to do it, the reason behind that justifies certain procedures.
It will help you to understand the reasons behind, giving you the information, tools and knowledge necessary for this goal.
So this book should  be read with the desire to learn and metabolize the information contained in it to find and create your own style, the only way to create art.
Ps: If you are at your first experience in whipmaking, please let me know and you'll receive togheter with the book a set of four strands of kangaroo leather to learn the flat and round braid and a long strand for tying your first knot.

This is how I insert the spring over the shot core in order to improve the transition point.
