Originally published in 1918, this is a wonderful book of things
for children, young adults or 'handy' grown-ups to make, full of
great project pieces. Many of the earliest books, particularly
those dating back to the 1900s and before, are now extremely scarce
and increasingly expensive. Hesperides Press are republishing these
classic works in affordable, high quality, modern editions, using
