The complete guide is available as six individual PDF files which can be downloaded from the web site above. (Each segment roughly 150 k, so a fast download even on rural dial up.) Individual chapter sections:
Chapter 1: The Culture Biz
Chapter 2: The Art of Self-Promotion
Chapter 3: The A to Z of Project Management
Chapter 4: Money – Keeping Track
Chapter 5: You and the Law
Discipline Enhancement: Crafts

The guide is free (for once an positive example of tax dollars at work). It will be especially useful for those considering developing a 'career' as an Artisan Blacksmith.
