I found a book called Elementary Woodworking online and it looked like an interesting view into the past. I ordered the hard copy, from the early 1900's and then discovered Harvard Library actually has a digital copy available online. If anyone is interested, there is a link below.

If you hit preview this book you can see the pages. There is some interesting information on tools, lumber, and techniques. Whike most of the information is basic, it is still neat to read about hiw things were done in days gone by.
