Great woodworking "How To" Book!

This is an outstanding book on making authentic early American country furniture. His instructions are some of the best I've ever seen published. The drawn illustrated plans are superior. The projects are real good and are based closely on originals. But please note: this is the same book by the author published by Rodale in 1999 with a slightly different subtitle.
