The Art of Joinery - Revised Edition

The Art of Joinery - Revised Edition. Author, Joseph Moxon

The Art of Joinery, first published as a pamphlet by Joseph Moxon in 1678, is one of the first English texts on this subject. Covering techniques lost in modern times, it sheds new light on the practical use of traditional hand tools. Lost Art Press, Christopher Schwarz's publishing house, has spent considerable time updating the language and adding a modern commentary to make this a highly important joinery reference for today.

The illustrations have been embedded in the text instead of in a separate place, and the original plates appear in their entirety. Also, the original, unedited text has been included, with all the antiquated characters and spellings.
