About
'This book examines much of the lore which has arisen from the diverse sources from whence came woven baskets and suggests the methods by which articles can be reproduced today. … Baskets, hampers, carry-alls and cots, beds, tables, chairs, rackets and sporting goods are shown ... Nature has provided a wondrous array of raw materials that can be utilised in the making of useful and decorative articles. This work sets out to show how these plants can be identified, prepared and used.' (exceprt from Introduction)
