Favorite Books

[Renardo Subrosa]

Hi there,

Here are my 3 favorite books:
(1) The Complete Woodworker by Bernard E. Jones
(2) The Practical Woodworker by Bernard E. Jones
(3) The Handyman's Book: Essential Woodworking Tools and Techniques
by Paul N. Hasluck

I began woodworking professionally in 1970 and grew to hate the sound of power tools. I love to work with hand tools and since I'm retired, I don't have to worry about making my work profitable.

Here's my question:
Given my taste in books and experience, can you recommend any other books? What are they?

Thanks in advance.

Ernest Joyce's tombe -- The Encyclopedia of Furnituremaking -- is a constant reference for me.

I've probably read Soul of a Tree cover to cover about 6 times. I refer to the Architectural Standards book a lot. But for pure eye candy it's
