Description: Illustrated with 234 color and black-and-white photographs, this early out-of-print book is a definitive guide to antique Canadian furniture. CABINETMAKERS OF THE EASTERN SEABOARD – A Study of Early Canadian Furniture by Charles Foss, M.F. Feheley Publishers Ltd., Canada, 1977. This scholarly text pictures and describes furniture made by twelve of Canada’s most eminent craftsmen over the last two hundred years. The author “has compiled biographical information on the craftsmen, their families and business relationships wherever facts are known, and the furniture illustrated was carefully chosen to be representative of the thousands of fine pieces existing today in collections and in the homes of descendents. Accompanying each piece, a caption describes in-depth the style, special features, materials, and often the history of a particular item, making this book a valuable reference for collectors.” Cabinetmakers include: Robert Chillas, Thomas Nesbit, Alexander Lawrence, James Hawes, John Warren Moore, Thomas Jefferson Caswell, Charles Thompson, John D. and Jonas Howe, Albert James Lordly, Alexander Henderson, The Vroom Brothers, and Alban S. Emery. Oversize / heavy 10.4” x 13.2” hardback with dust cover in very good condition. 158 pages. FREE media mail shipping and handling for deliveries within the 50 United States.
