Clearly a labor of love and a definitive reference. The attribution of chairs as Shaker and the association of a chair with a particular community is based on the authors' consideration of oral tradition, provenance, place of discovery, visual examination, evaluation of design features, historic photographs, and information found in written sources. Abundantly illustrated with carefully chosen photos and purposeful drawings. 9x12" Annotation copyright by Book News, Inc., Portland, OR

The Shakers produced many incredible furniture objects that we continue to venerate today. For the woodworker the fascination is often rooted in the essential simplicity of the work. Interest in Shaker design is as strong today as it was when the first edition of this book was published in 1977, possibly stronger. This ongoing interest is the direct result of the inherent beauty of Shaker design—beauty that stems not only from form, but from superb workmanship, a commitment to utility and a total understanding of material.

The Mount is a ragged little stump in the woods, a lonely child with three minivans, an asthmatic yellow bus, a grimy cafeteria and a collection of dorms that could only be described as fixer-uppers.Jeff Green has been teaching there for eight years, talking to Shaker ghosts and planning his great escape. But now that he is the interim head of the English Department, his last year on The Mount is going to be plagued with unwanted responsibilities, unforseen romance and rivals who will stop at nothing to usurp his throne.
