Here is a blerb from a book I found in the NC State Library, the bind was broken which made it easily scanned.
Woodsmanship (1945)
Glorious!:D

awesome....much better than modern day text....and nice simple pictures...
 
commandojoe, could you give some more details on the book you found this in? Is the whole title just Woodsmanship? How many pages? Is the whole book about axes?

Sorry for all the questions but it looks like a book I'd really like to buy some day.
 
I would like to see a copy of that book if you run across one some day.

Thanks.
 
very nice, I like that it shows a convex edge, and to leave a little more metal at the toe and heel for strength
