Making Swedish Country Furniture and Household Things
The 35 woodworking projects in this book come directly from Sweden¿s past, and the original pieces can be seen in Swedish museums. Many of the pieces evoke familiar early American styles, but with a distinctive Swedish touch. The projects include small and easy-to-make things such as a plate rack, child¿s stool, tray, and simple cutting boards. Others are larger and more challenging, like the stepladder, the armchair with turned arms and legs, the shelf with built-in drawers, and the sturdy country bed. Each piece is photographed and every detail is accurately described. Step-by-step instructions and expertly drawn how-to diagrams are given for every project. There are also instructions for traditional Swedish finishing, painting, and staining methods.

Japan: The Dutch Experience
This revision of Professor Goodman's earlier work, The Dutch Impact on Japan, originally published in 1967, was brought up-to-date with much new information in 1986 in response to renewed interest in the Dutch influence on Japan during the so-called 'closed centuries' between 1640 and 1853. Professor Goodman explains the circumstances of the Dutch in Japan during the seventeenth century, and the historical and intellectual milieu within which 'Dutch studies' were nurtured. He traces the initial interest of the Shogun government in European astronomy and medicine, and the gradual development of interest to wider spheres of Western knowledge and culture. First published in 1986, this title is part of the Bloomsbury Academic Collections series.
