All right another book giveaway I love woodworking books. Im a self taught woodworker. Books and magazines has been my number one way of learning new things. Thanks for another chance to further my knowledge.
Early American furniture is a pleasure to build. Adding this book to my collection of woodworking books would help me continue to build furniture for others.
G'day,
Given that my daughter has a 100 year old house and is
furnishing it in early American, the book would be a
valuable addition to our collection.

Sounds like a fantastic book!
Would love to add this to my library of woodworking books.
Early American country furniture, keyword here is country, which to me implies the home mechanic, farmer, armature woodworker making furniture for his family, like most of the woodworkers today.
I would love a copy. Thanks..
Looks like a very interesting book. Thank you for offering a copy.
I think it is important to understand that not all high quality furniture produced in the preceding centuries came from Boston or Philly. Many great works came form rural areas and small cabinet shops. Although 'country' furniture was at one time considered unsophisticated, its popularity has seen a resurgence and any book that contributes to this is a wonderful addition to anyones library!
I'd love this book. The regional variety of traditional furniture is really amazing.
me too
