5.0 out of 5 stars The one book to buy for building your own Stickley pieces, 11 Mar 2002
By Andy Dingley "andy_dingley" (Bristol, UK) - See all my reviews
(TOP 500 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)   
I have a number of books on Stickley; his designs, his history, and project books on how to reproduce the pieces. Of all these books, this is by far the best for anyone looking to recreate their own piece of furniture.

It's not an exhaustive list of all the pieces, but it's a good selection. There's a good graduation in difficulty and complexity too, so any weekend carpenter should be able to start making high quality furniture.

As well as the projects and plans, there are good sections on the history of Stickley, and on the cabinetmaking techniques you'll need to build them. Neither is (of course) a replacement for any number of other books, but both are just about the right level of detail for what you really need to know.

If you're looking to build your first piece of Stickley, this is the book to start with.

5.0 out of 5 stars The best book for woodworkers, 11 Dec 2000
By Andy Dingley "andy_dingley" (Bristol, UK) - See all my reviews
(TOP 500 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)   
There are better histories and collector's guides to Stickley or the Craftsman movement, but if you're a woodworker of any modest talent looking to make your own repros, then this is the book to have.

The book has three sections; a history of the movement and the firm, some general guidance to appropriate techniques, and some plans with step-by-step instructions. You'll need to have some experience of woodworking to make use of them, but it's a good book for those looking to make their first "serious" piece of furniture.

I've spent more on a single plan than this book costs. Highly recommended.

5.0 out of 5 stars This is the one "must have" Craftsman furniture book., 28 Feb 1999
By A Customer
I am a serious hobby woodworker. I have spent a lot of money on books on the Arts & Crafts movement. This is by far the best how-to Craftsman furniture book I have come across. I refer to it more than any other resource. If you want to build the real thing, this is the best single resource there is. This is one book I never loan.
