Illustrated with numerous interesting and folky full-page color plates and many black and white drawings.

The special knowledge of which wood is suited to which task, the ready identification of native trees, the reverence for wood, the instinctive knowledge that wood can warm the soul as well as the body -- these virtues of a bygone age are revived in Eric Sloane's remarkable work. Heavily illustrated, with a section on identification of nearly sixty native trees, A REVERENCE FOR WOOD provides an illuminating view of the resource that made possible so much of the early settlement of North America.

Excellent condition with perhaps only slightly bumped corners -- Interior is spotless. Wonderful illustrations.  Dust Jacket is fine with some illustrations on both front and back.. Extremely slight closed tear upper right edge of front jacket. Hard to find.
