Books

Take a look at a new Photoworks book on my series of

ANIMA: Carved Bark Figures

Photographs by Adam Kurtz.

 

That Adirondack Chair book I've been working on since the last century   and a book on The Hammock are now due out in June, 2008.  They are visually complicated books and took longer for production than we all expected.  Stewart, Tabori & Chang is the publisher.

 

Dan's Rustic Books   

In 2004, Dan finished a new rustic book with his friend, Thomas Stender. Rustic Garden Furniture and Accessories is the fourth in this Rustic Series for Lark Books with 30 clear projects and up-to-date tool information. In 2007, it came out in paperback for $14.95

All these books have a mix of history, lore, technical information and projects. And they each feature work by a couple of dozen different makers in addition to Dan’s work. No one book is “better”, but the first, Making Rustic Furniture (1991), is the longest. It costs $20 signed .  There are over 200,000 copies out there!

Renamed Title.... the same book

The third book, Simple Rustic Furniture, was re-named The Rustic Workshop(1999) when it went to paperback. For $25, I'll sign a single copy for you and draw a picture in it and send it along priority mail.

If you want the three available Lark-Rustic Books together, signed and drawn in, you have a deal for only $60, delivered in the US.

 

OUT-OF PRINT

My second book, The Rustic Furniture Companion, was re-named The Art of Rustic Furniture (1995) when it went to paperback. As of 2006, this is now out-of-print and available only from Amazon or Ebay.

Dan Mack writes about Log Cabins.  In 1999, Log Cabin Living came out.  It's a long essay-poem on the log cabin... on everything except how to make them! It's about camping, bugs, ghosts, trees, food collecting and all the other little streams of imagination that feed the Log Cabin mind in each of us. This is now out-of-print and available on Amazon or Ebay. I still have two copies left to sell.  $40 post-paid.
