Illustrated with step-by-step, full-color photography on virtually every page, Classic Whittling: Basic Techniques and Old-Time Projects is a solid guide to this art of crafting beautiful and functional items from wood, whether for purposes of hobby, stress relief, or just plain fun.

Classic Whittling is a "must-have" for anyone interested in practicing or refining their command of this creative and skillful endeavor.
