Thos. Moser Cabinetmakers has set the standard for fine woodworking and meticulously hand-crafted furniture for more than forty years. In this modern age of inexpensive mass production, Moser furniture stands out because every piece is hand-made by a master craftsman (or woman). Generally minimalist in style, the pieces are highly sophisticated in their construction. And though Moser has been influenced by Shaker and Japanese furniture makers, the elegant and graceful lines give each piece an aesthetic all its own.
In Legacy in Wood, Thomas Moser reflects on his long career and offers his thoughts on creativity, inspiration, and his design aesthetic. It gives an intimate look into the life and work of a pioneering craftsman, whose example shows that you can build a career working with your hands the old-fashioned way.

Self serving semi catalog to try to sell furniture. All the pictures in the book are now in color. Buy this book! Linda Eaton has updated one of the most important textile and quilt history texts ever printed. Not recommended. Fantastic Book thoroughly recommend it. I have always loved the furniture, but this is not a how-to or design book. Readers no longer have to imagine how the textiles look- they have recently taken photos to show them. Family biography and I kept trying to figure who outside the family might want to buy this book. New scholarship has been incorporated that adds significantly to our understanding of these textiles as well. Great for a costumer's library. Even if you own Montgomery's original book, you need this book.. Timeless and very classical.
