Rustic Carpentry: Woodworking with Natural Timber (ISBN 1602391211)

Rustic Carpentry:
Learn how to bring out the beauty in unfinished wood-work. Whether you need a new table or tool-shed this book is tells you step-by-step how to build whatever it is you want to build. The illustrations are great, and even the most inexperienced person can follow along and become a master carpenter.

Victorian Style:
Interesting in a quaint, old-fashioned way. There are some good ideas for mortised and other joints. I think most projects in the book would seem labor intensive and time consuming to builders today. Still, a good book for historical perspective on "wildcrafted" artifacts for home and garden.

Not what I was expecting:
This book has some great project ideas in it, but it is somewhat lacking in content. I was expecting some better "how-to" information than the book presents. Not a bad purchase, but it wasn't as informative as I was expecting.
