Found this book in the laundry room, and really enjoyed it. I've never actually had a NICE jigsaw puzzle, and I had no idea how complex and personalized handmade ones really are.

Very interesting read!

Makes a great reference book for puzzlers interested in the history of their hobby/obsession, but is a little bit outdated at this point because of all that has happened to retailing in the 14 years since the book was published. Some of the website references will, of course, lead nowhere at this point, but the majority of sites cited do still work and they offer more details on this great hobby.
