Editorials

Library Journal

Stack has created a collection of furniture that evokes the warmth of the northwoods' lodges and cabins, rugged and solid and made of native woods. Stack, a cabinemaker, woodworking instructor, and editor, shows readers how to make a variety of pieces including a bed, nightstand, bookcase, and game table. He uses straightforward techniques that are within the abilities of most amateur woodworkers. The furniture's rustic good looks are enhanced through the use of knotty, rough-sawn lumber and unfinished branches. It isn't necessary to own a log cabin to enjoy these designs. Recommended for larger public libraries. Copyright 2001 Cahners Business Information.
