Interesting book
I was looking for something to give me confidence to try something new for paper making. Is this it? I’m not sure. I’ve still got questions but hey - I can always find out more online. Inspiring? Definitely.

Really good ...
OK it's American and it refers to plants common there but the first half of the book is about paper making fundamentals which enable you to adapt any of the recipes described to the plants you have available. A book that makes you want to start right away.

Great resource
Very interesting introduction to harvesting, processing and paper making from plant fibers. Can't wait to try everything. I am very glad that Latin names of plants are also included as the American English name cannot always be translated into German to find out which plant is meant.
