I have the great privilege of spending a measly $24 on books this semester.. as I already own most of them out of personal interest.
This frees up several hundred dollars, part of which I would like to use on some resource books specifically on tattoos... history, different styles, etc...
Though I also will likely get some drawing books, I'm looking for suggestions on tattoo books specifically. Your recommendations?
