Customer Reviews
Very thorough - Rated It's not too clear in the title but this book is specifically about treating steel, it does cover other materials. I had a basic understanding heat treatments before this book but did not understand why the steel changed when you heated and cooled it. The book starts with a nice history of working iron into steel and the different types of steel. It follows with lots of scientific detail as to what is happening in the metal when it is treated. For people with no background in science this might be a little hard going. However, the science is balanced with lots of practical details of how to do all of the different heat treatment of steel and when not to attempt this. The book is clearly written with good digrams and images.
