Making Classic English Furniture, by Paul Richardson. 179 Pages. Softbound. Written by a fifth-generation English cabinetmaker and published by the Guild of Master Craftsmen, this book succeeds in its task of presenting, for the contemporary woodworker, a series of projects that combine the use of modern tools with traditional English cabinetmaking methods. The color photographs and quality line drawings accent the author's thoroughly readable text. Projects explained and illustrated include an 18th Century chest; a late-Georgian dressing table; a mid-Georgian library bookcase and more. Each of the projects allows the author to focus on techniques such as dovetailing, drawer-making, veneering and more. Materials and equipment are also discussed in great detail. UNAVAILABLE (BK-0553)
