I’ve done a few tile jobs and they came out well, but now I’m getting alot more, with more complicated features etc. Can anyone recommend a good book(s) on tile.
Taunton carries “Setting Tile”, “Tiling Floors”, “Tiling Countertops”, and “Tiling Walls” . . . all by Michael Byrne. Any suggestions. Thanks

Setting Tile by Michae Byrne I can personally recommend.
Let's not confuse the issue with facts!
It sounds like I am at about the same stage as you when it comes to tiling. I purchased Setting Tile based on a recommendation from this site. I found it at Amazon and purchased it used for about $10.00. It is a great book and covers all that I need to know for the level of jobs I do. I found it to be a good investment.

Of the ones you listed I've only read Setting Tile. I think it was his first book, and is a general book covering all tile setting. I recommend it.
I got that book too, but I need a book on tile design. what type tile do you put in a shower? ceramic, porelean, glass?
