Not the cheapest, but the newest
and the best that I have seen to date.
It features hundreds of colour pictures of the best mosaic work
from around the world, even features some work from NZ.
Very helpful, informative information, including sites of mosaic

Lots of good to do projects with clear step by step instructions,
