Canes is a magnificent tour of canes and staffs from the late seventeenth through the twentieth century in both folk art and formal forms. Nine hundred eye-catching photos provide a sweeping survey of the varying cane forms available to collectors today from around the globe. Discussion travels far afield, leaping across time from 300,000 years ago to the 1930's, discovering relics from the carriage of George Washington and investigating the connection between agriculture, organized warfare and weapon canes.
