    Description
    When the first Pennsylvania Dutch settlers came to America during the latter years of the 18th century, they brought with them superior crafts and skills, especially in furniture making, that set new standards of refinement for American craftsmen. In this lavishly illustrated how-to manual and historical guide, you will not only learn how to make beautiful authentic Pennsylvania Dutch furniture, but you will discover a great deal about the Pennsylvania Dutch themselves - their culture, religion and traditions of craftsmanship. Richly illustrated guide to Pennsylvania Dutch culture and craftsmanship, including measured drawings for building 50 representative pieces: chairs, tables, desks, many more. 250 illustrations. Bibliography.
