NY: Harcourt, Brace & Company. Very Good in Good dust jacket; Jacket chipped and tattered.. 1933. First Edition. Hardcover. Green cloth binding. xiii, 290 pp. Many illustrations by G. Ruth Taylor and plans by the author. Index. A vintage woodworking book written for boys (girls were steered to the author's "Handicraft for Girls") with instructions for over 100 projects, from soda cannons to pinhole cameras to a squirrel feeding station. We like the "Go-Devil", a horse-drawn winter sledge for "when winter sets in and old dobbin starts eating her head off for lack of exercise." .
