The materials included in this bibliography focus on the craftsmen
responsible for the creation of fine furniture. Works that give
biographical information about furniture craftsmen and discuss the
stylistic and aesthetic development of their art; works that
examine the sociological, political, economic and environmental
conditions within which furniture craftsmen worked, as well as
furniture factories and furniture retail businesses themselves; and
general works useful in the study of American furniture are cited.
The bibliography consists of four main sections, the first of which
deals with the life and work of individual furniture makers and
designers. The second section focuses on groups of furniture
craftsmen. Works of a general nature that contribute to the study
of American furniture are found in section three. The fourth
section contains furniture trade catalogs published by
manufacturers and wholesalers for salesmen and retail stores. A
two-part appendix lists furniture trade periodicals published
mainly during the years 1880-1930, and manuscript repositories
containing materials relevant to furniture. Three
indexes--craftsman, author-title, and subject complete the volume.
