With the expert information and 400+ illustrations, this reference will guide you through the selection of material, the complexities of wood movement, the choice of joinery, and the mysteries of pleasing design. Starting with just a few basic handtools, you'll progress from simple but useful projects to furniture that will be proudly used for generations.
