This is a well written and useful title with beautiful photographs (more like the cover photo are inside). I bought multiple copies for my library system.

And incredible book! It is so well written, you can feel the knowledge and the passion of the author on every page.
It really made my imagination fly. I have sticky notes on every other page with all sorts of ideas.
Perfect Christmas present!

Have you ever wanted to know anything about wood-framed buildings? No? Maybe you just want to look at pictures of really cool looking wooden houses? Yes? Then this is the book for you! If you know anything about woodworking or architecture then you'll definitely be interested.

If you just like cool pictures of unique buildings then you'll be good as well.

A beautifully photographed book of timber frame building by hand in the old fashioned way. With no nails!
The author explains what timber framing is, the history of it, how he became a timber framer, and shows the beauty of the craft. I loved the illustrations and techniques of the different types of joinery used. And of the tools used, and how to use them.
Sobon has loaded the book with beautiful photos of historical timber-framed structures, from all over the world.
A person could easily spend hours just looking at the photographs.
If you have any interest in architecture, or of woodworking, you will love this book!
