I'd recommend Finishes & Finishing Techniques - Taunton Press. Jeff
Jewitt and others are included in this book from Fine Woodworking
articles. You'll get diverse opinions from each author, on some minor
points.

If you spray finishes, then Andy Charron's Spray Finishing is informative.

This one was particularly good I thought. Lot of info there for people
who have never done wood finishing courses or really thought about it.

If you can think of any others -- by anyone -- I want to expand the
library a bit -- other than one other book on faking -- er I mean
repairing ( complete with old time materials lists) -- antiques this is
the only one I have.
