From William Morris and the roots of the movement, through Gustav Stickley, the Prairie School, and including contemporary pieces, this book celebrates the classic furniture - and the master craftsmen who made it.
This book gives a comprehensive look at the design and construction of this furniture, with nearly 500 colour photos illustrating examples of the style. An extensive list of resources and full bibliography is included.
