À propos de l'auteur

Byron W. Maguire has been fascinated with woodworking since childhood. A true craftsman, he began his official training when he was twelve years old working as an apprentice to his father, who was a master cabinetmaker. While in the USAF, he spent nine years in the Civil Engineer's carpentry shop where he built furniture and cabinetry for many of the base clubs and chapels. After leaving the service, Mr. Maguire went into business remodeling kitchens and building cabinetry and specialty pieces, and taught classes in cabinetmaking at the Junior College VoTech center. He sees fine woodworking not only as a craft that produces long-lasting, beautiful pieces of furniture, but as creative artistry that offers a release from the stress of the dull, routine work most people spend their working lives doing.
