Woodcraft by George Sears

[Krieger]

Here's a nice quote on the Preface page:

For brick and mortar breed filth and crime,
With a pulse of evil that throbs and beats;
And men are withered before their prime
By the curse paved in with the lanes and streets.
And lungs are poisoned and shoulders bowed,
In the smothering reek of mill and mine;
And death stalks in on the struggling crowd
But he shuns the shadow of oak and pine.

What a great book!!

I love old books anyway, but that one is very readable, with the actual content and verbiage written in such a way that much of it still rings true.

Great find. I'll be downloading and printing that one.

Thanks for the link!! :thumbup::thumbup:
