There's no competition. When it comes to the American Idyll, the hammock and the Adirondack chair are the shoe-in (and shoes-off!) winners. Built for lazing around in, they're the classic icons of a summer getaway. And they're both quintessentially American. The hammock, invented by the native inhabitants of the Caribbean, was �discovered" by Columbus on his first voyage to the New World. And the Adirondack chair�whose name evokes the mountain retreats for which it was originally fashioned�is deeply rooted in the American Arts & Crafts movement. In these charming books, furniture maker Daniel Mack captures the nostalgic, carefree, and oh-so-comfortable spirit of the hammock and 'Rondack chair. Illustrated with scores of contemporary photographs and images from vintage memorabilia, The Hammock and The Adirondack Chair are also filled with �who knew?" history. And each contains instructions for hanging your own hammock or building your own chair. But really, these books�splendid gifts for Father's Day or as thank-you tokens for summer-weekend hosts�are not about work. In fact, they're perfect for taking a little break with (while relaxing, of course, in a hammock or Adirondack chair).
