For 2 centuries, Americans have made stunning, utilitarian objects by hand. Each tells a story: about the person behind the work; about the cultural moment in which it was created; about the political mood, community, and cultural forces that gave rise to that design. Craft in America, the companion book to the PBS series of the same name, highlights the work of America's most interesting craft artisans past & present while also reflecting our nation's history and the remarkable people who passed on their traditions.
