Over 280 crisp color photos reveal artifacts of early American
everyday life that were useful for surveying land, building log
homes, farming the land, traveling, blacksmithing, and
cabinetmaking. From light paper ephemera such as land surveys and
playing cards to heavy garden stones and Conestoga wagon
components, they are pictured and explained. This book is ideal for
all those with a passion for history or a curiosity about objects
used in America in the mid-eighteenth and nineteenth centuries.
