COLOUR
contains information on over 275
commercial woods from world-
wide sources.
The full-colour illustrations show
the timber's natural grain and
features and each is fully annotated
with relevant information including
commercial and botanical names,
distribution, general description,
mechanical properties, seasoning,
working properties, durability and a
full range of uses for each wood.
The woods are indexed for
botanical, trade, commercial and
local names, and family names, and
there is a full bibliography of
publications concerning timber
study and identification.
This unique book will be a vital
reference tool for all those
concerned with timber studies and
craftsmanship in wood as well as to
the numerous trades and professions
having to make decisions about
which wood to use, its suitability
for the job in hand, the alternatives
and so on. Designers, architects,
builders, woodworkers, restorers
and antique dealers are among the
many who will want to have their
own copy near at hand.
Here is a publication sure to find an
important place in reference
libraries, schools and colleges, and
the private libraries of all wood
devotees.
