Nicely written book for flutes

I like the storytelling of how this book and its history of the flutes were created. It presents an interesting perspective of creating your own flute based on one person’s interpretation of a cultural craft. Unfortunately my copy was supposed to have a cd/dvd with it and wasn’t when it arrived thus cost verses actual value not equal. My husband said it has nice pictures but hard to follow instructions for creating the flute, and he wishes it was a hard bound version instead of a flimsy paperback.
