Not what I thought but still good

I was looking for a book that would help teach me to make furniture. This book includes pretty much every aspect of carpentry except that, from logging and wood quality to building a house. This could probably still be applied to furniture making with a little thinking.

The one book to own on the subject

This book was the required text for a workshop at North Bennet Street School in Boston. I needed a good reference book and this is it. It's expensive, so I got my library to get a copy through Inter-Library loan so that I could see if it was worth the money. It has gobs of information. I bought the newest (the fourth) edition. It's well-illustrated for those of us who are visual learners. Well worth every penny!

Outstanding

This is the book to own if you do any type of carpentry. Carpentry is one of the best manuals I've seen. Reminds me of my college text books.

Comprehensive

This book is great. It has definitions of the buzzwords of construction, discussion of all aspects of construction, and hundreds of drawings detailing what you need to know.

Carpentry

Carpentry is the most comprehensive book on the subject out there. I bought my copy in 1986 when I was building my house and found every answer to every job I was doing. When the building inspector came for the rough inspection, his coment was " if the contractors in town did this good of a job, my job would be easy". Today I am searching for this book for my brother inlaw who like myself, before I bought the book, has no clue of how to build it right.
