From the Back Cover
"Wood is the material most like man," writes master timber framer and architect Jack A. Sobon. He has devoted his life to developing a kinship with wood and with the hand tools he uses to shape it into graceful timber frames that can make an indoor environment feel simultaneously cozy and connected to the trees and forests out of which it was built. Through the lens of his personal history, accompanied by stunning photos of structures both ancient and modern, Sobon offers a unique celebration of the 7,000-year-old craft of timber framing.

Sobon, Jack A.: - Jack A. Sobon is an architect and builder specializing in timber-framed buildings. A founding director of the Timber Framer's Guild of North America and founder of the Traditional Timber Frame Research and Advisory Group, Sobon has devoted his 38-year career to understanding the craft of timber framing. Using only traditional hand tools, he has framed and erected over 50 structures. He is the author of Build a Classic Timber-Framed House and coauthor of Timber Frame Construction. A graduate of the Rhode Island School of Design, Sobon teaches and consults nationally on traditional building structures and timber-framing techniques.
