This book is like a buffet… the author covers a whole bunch of different techniques and materials, including projects with complete tutorials.
Now, this is book is not meant as a price guide or collecting guide. It is a history of costume jewelry starting at the 18th century (including paste jewelry) all the way through to modern styles. It is wonderfully written, netting an enjoyable read that although includes historical data, is not history-heavy.
