To the uninitiated, it's a simple stick. To the skilled player, the can holds pride of place in any dungeon for its simplicity, beauty, utility and unparalleled intensity. Janet Hardy, a switchable pain fetishist with a particular fondness for canes, shares a decade and a half of expertise on both ends of the cane: use, materials, construction, maintenance, different styles of application, pacing aftercare and much more.
Great instructional book that is small and easy to take with you or fits in your bedside table.

the whole toybag series is just really a must have for anyone interested in the lifestyle. This bookworks like clifnotes to a class, it doesn't replace hands on trainng (as it tells you) but def will help you learn and remember the basics and even a bit beyond. I recomend the whole series!
Cane Away!

This tiny book offers some a "quick and dirty" introduction to the world of canes and caning. Ms Hardy offers some of her thoughts about this activity, as well as some of the "luridness" of it (she mentions Micheal Fey's caning in Singapore as an example of this), and also a chapter that she calls "The Craft of Caning," which is a short lesson on how to cane someone. Later on, she turns the tables by describing "how to receive the caning," as well as the different types of canes and finally making your own and how to take proper care of them so that they last a good long time.Since this book along with the others in this series do fit inside a toybag, I could see where someone about to do a caning scene might quickly refer to this for a few pointers before proceeding. This book is not a "beginners caning book" however, again more of a quick review before heading on. Still it has great information readily available at a moment's glance.
