Understanding Earth’s most fascinating natural resource: books
about wood usually come from one of two very opposite poles:
there are either craft-oriented books filled mainly with pretty
pictures, but with very weak or vague data, or there are thinly
veiled scientific books, filled with an over-abundance of data:
burying the uninitiated in microscope images and confusing
terminology. This book hopes to selectively bring together the
best of both worlds: written from a craftsperson’s perspective,
it also seeks to glean the wealth of scientific knowledge and
bring it into practical reach for woodworkers everywhere. Over
350 woods covered. 100+ full-page profiles. 100+ half-page
profiles for less-common woods. Guides for distinguishing
lookalike woods. Detailed identification data and strength
properties.
