On this page I plan to make a reading list that includes books published by the various makers in this wiki as well as books about those makers and the instruments they build. This page will also include a section on books that demonstrate instrument building theory and methods that are relevant to making musical instruments. | On this page I plan to make a reading list that includes books published by the various makers in this wiki as well as books about those makers and the instruments they build.
