Can anyone recommend a good book or website on rugs

I'd love to learn more about Oriental rugs, but the web is full of sites with conflicting, unsourced information, or second-rate sales sites.

Are there any decent books on the subject, what to look for, best ways to buy etc etc?

So far as I know, the most universally-lauded book on the subject is Eiland and Eiland, Oriental Carpets: A Complete Guide. I own it, and it is beautifully illustrated and extremely comprehensive.

Find it on Amazon here:
