Very good reference book

This book is packed with diagrams; photos and practical methods to mend those boo-boos in both old and new furniture. This has become on of my "go to" books for repairs. It covers upholstery and caning in addition to repairs to the structure of furniture. Since it's a little pricey, check your library or go for a used copy. I think you'll find it helpful.

A great book with limitations

After inheriting some old furniture that had belonged to my late grandmother, I invested in 2 books about repairing/restoring furniture...this one and the one written by Brian Hingley. Both are good books, but this one was written by Albert Jackson and David Day, who live in England. Some of the terms are different than what we are used to in America. For example, the authors explain how to make your own cleaning solution...

Very helpful indeed

This book is a great place to start for anyone either wishing to resurrect fantastic old pieces or just make the most of the ones they already have. It's packed full of diagrams and should have something for both amateurs and the experienced alike. It basically tells you how to deal with furniture restoration and maintenance from simple polishes to complete overhauls. A great resource to have around.
