                    This beautiful book draws on Robert Race's extensive collection of
traditional moving toys, looking at the ways the makers have
achieved remarkable and varied results, often with very limited
resources. Each chapter begins by looking at the mechanisms and
materials used in some of these traditional moving toys, goes on to
consider possible variations, and describes how to make a related
moving toy. It continues, from this basis, to develop a design for
an automaton. The book shows that designing and making these simple
but wonderfully satisfying mechanical devices is fun, and that good
results can be achieved in many different ways, using a variety of
materials, tools and equipment such as wood and wire, card and
paper, bamboo, string, tin plate and feathers.
