This is a superb and comprehensive guide for those new to woodworking, but it will also hold a few surprises and useful shortcuts for the seasoned pro. Included are chapters on setting up and maintaining a shop, the basic tools and materials needed in every shop, fundamental techniques for building all kinds of furniture, and thorough information on finishes and finishing methods. An added bonus is the inclusion of a number of first projects for the beginner. Generously illustrated with color photographs and helpful diagrams throughout, this is an excellent how-to book for the woodworker who wants to become a real artisan. --Mark A.
