The two books of Milanese Braids, 'Milanese Lace: An Introduction' and 'New Braids and Designs in Milanese Lace', both by Read and Kincaid (1988; 1994), have long been out of print. To make the braids available to a new audience, we reproduce them here, together with about forty new braids that were not included in earlier books. The braids are drawn from both Milanese and other continental braid-type laces. This is intended to be a reference book and it is hoped that it will stimulate creativity and encourage lace makers to develop new designs for modern use.

This book has the braids from both of the previous Read and Kincaid books, but also has nearly 50 additional braids that were previously unpublished. So it's not just a reprint of the earlier 2 books.
A technical book with braid diagrams, it does not have patterns.
