    The video is a companion to Steve's earlier book "Mokume Gane in the
    Small Shop" which is a small format paperback book that details how
    to make a small fire brick kiln and make small mokume billets using a
    torch to fire them. His second book "Mokume Gane: A Comprehensive
    Study" is a truly comprehensive look at mokume gane in a beautifully
    produced hard bound 8.5 x 11 format. He had several other artists
    write chapters that cover their different techniques. It also has
    some history and a lot of great pictures of mokume gane items made by
    a wide variety of artists. I am of course somewhat biased in my
    opinion about the book as I am one of the chapter writers :-) But
    with that said there is not a better book out there for getting a 
    lot of information about mokume gane. 

    A good second book is Ian Ferguson's "Mokume Gane"
