A must-read for any artist/craftsperson in the 21st Century!

Kardon's 3-volume set is a magnificent addition to any library--but this book in particular helps us understand the evolution of craft. I am particularly interested in the Arts and Crafts movement and the effect the Industrial Revolution had on craftspeople. This book is a must-read to understand why our homes look the way they do, and what goes into the work of craft vs the work of machine to make life livable.
