Summary | "Carpentry and Woodwork" by Edwin W. Foster is an instructional guide focused on practical woodworking skills written in the early 20th century. It aims to spark the creativity of young boys, encouraging them to explore woodworking through various projects and techniques while also emphasizing the importance of following proper guidance in their learning process. The opening of the book introduces two boys, Ralph and Harry, as they engage in a creative woodworking session, where Ralph teaches Harry the basics of whittling and handling tools effectively. He illustrates the value of planning and technique over mere enthusiasm. Their discussion leads to hands-on lessons about using knives, selecting wood, and the importance of precision — setting the stage for a series of projects that will build Harry's skills and confidence in woodworking throughout the narrative.
