This book is a great introduction to building dioramas. It provides details of approached to various aspects, from assembly to painting and final detailing. That contrasts with most AK books, for example, in that those books usually only give generalizations as to how to proceed. There is ample background to start the book and a nice appendix detailing useful tools, while finishing with a brief gallery.

This book is great! Helped me understand the basics of making a diorama.
