Adirondack Furniture

Hardback coffee table book featuring furniture from New York's Adirondack region. Published in 1987 by Harry N. Abram, 349 pages.

"The story of Adirondack rustic furniture begins in the late nineteenth century, when Americans began to summer in the Adirondacks, to camp and fish and hunt there, to escape from their confining cities into the great outdoors. A booming demand for furniture to stock great camps, cottages, resorts, and hotels in this then remote region coincided with the maturing of an American style of rustic architecture and decoration."
