Norman Reid of Wood News Online just reviewed “Campaign Furniture” for the latest issue. Here is a short excerpt of the review:
“…(W)hile I was tempted to pass up this book, I’m very glad I didn’t. I came to like it a lot. It is, as we’ve come to expect from Schwarz, informative, clear and entertainingly written. The book is well-illustrated throughout with photos that convey the essence of critical construction steps. It is hard bound and printed on high quality paper, something that’s usual for books from Lost Art Press, which makes this one a definite keeper.”

I cannot wait to finish reading this book! I got a glimpse at a local shop, and It is the only item on my father’s day wishlist. Chris has been really helpful in corresponding about hardware etc. I. am hoping to complete my second campaign chest in time for my best friend’s 35th birthday. The chest is easily adapted for a whiskey bar, perfect for the apt he rents while working long distance from his wife and children. I’m hoping chris’ book revitalizes the phrase “have chest, will travel!”
And while I really like Highland, its worth noting that Lee Valley is running a free shipping promo for the next week. Which saves you $8 in s&h on this masterwork.
