whip making books

Whips and Whipmaking by David Morgan, Cornell Maritime Press

Not really a how to book but lots of valuable info, history and techniques esp. on Australian whip




Whipmaking :A Beginners Guide by Dennis Rush, Meta Publishers
I found this at Tandy Leather. As the title says, good diagrams and info, not offputting.


Leather Braiding and The Encyclopedia of Leather and Rawhide Braiding by Bruce Grant Cornell Maritime Press
Braiding and more braiding, knotwork and some diagrammed instruction on how to build quirts, crops and bullwhips American and Argentine tradition



How To Make Whips: "All you need for a start is a piece of leather, a sharp knife, a steady hand, and some patience." By Ron Edwards 1998 Cornell Maritime Press. An updated compilation of Edwards' first three booklets on traditional Australian whipmaking Excellent!
