Publisher's Synopsis
This early manual is a fascinating read for any carpentry enthusiast or historian, but contains much information that is still useful and practical today. Extensive diagrams illustrate step-by-step guides to building various items of garden furniture. Contents Include: Furniture For Outdoor Living, Outdoor Fireplaces, Fences, Gates, Arbors and Trellises, Garden Playgrounds and Patios, and Ornamental Accessories. Many of the earliest books, particularly those dating back to the 1900s and before, are now extremely scarce and increasingly expensive. We are republishing these classic works in affordable, high quality, modern editions, using the original text and artwork.
