Forget what you think about 17th-century New England furniture. It is neither dark nor boring. Instead, it's a riot of geometric carvings and bright colors - all built upon simple constructions that use rabbets, nails and mortise-and-tenon joints. Peter Follansbee has spent his adult life researching this beguiling time period to understand the simple tools and straightforward processes used to build six historical pieces in this book. »Joiner's Work« represents the culmination of decades of serious research and shop experimentation. But it is no dry treatise. Follansbee’s wit - honed by 20 years of demonstrating at Plimoth Plantation - suffuses every page. It’s a fascinating trip to the early days of joinery on the North American continent that is filled with lessons for woodworkers of all persuasions.
