Book excerpt: Wire and canvas decoys were popular around the Eastern shore of Virginia and the Carolinas near the turn of the 20th century because good carving wood was scarce. This book demonstrates step-by-step how to make one of these clever decoys, from constructing the body and carving the head, to painting the finished project. He even shows how to antique the decoy for an elegant weathered look. This book includes patterns for ten different breeds, a colorful gallery, helpful reference charts, and a lot of tried-and-true advice.
