Woodworker and custom furniture maker Anderson here presents a manual on furniture making drawn from his experience. This huge book would seem to be a treasure trove of furniture designs and projects, especially with all the cover illustrations of wood furniture. Sadly, however, there are only three projects and way too much verbiage. The instruction, while accurate and highly detailed, is overwhelming for the beginning woodworker, and there is no payoff for conquering the text: the projects are really dull. Also, there isn't anything for the experienced craftsperson who just wants some great projects. A marginal purchase.
