Franz Arz, Asiatische Drachen, 1992, ISBN 3-8043-0197-5 (german)

How to build asian kites using traditional materials. The book focuses on japanese kites with just a few designs from other countries. Much of this is contained in other books too, but there are some useful hints on working with traditional materials (paper and bamboo) and a few novel designs. Plenty of photos help you get an impression of what the kites are supposed to look like in flight.
