Essentials of woodworking : $b A textbook for schools

"Essentials of Woodworking: A Textbook for Schools" by Ira Samuel Griffith is a guide from the early 1900s that shows students and teachers how to work with wood. It explains the tools, steps, and skills needed for woodworking in schools and other learning places. The book explains that woodworking should be taken as seriously as other subjects and that students can study the book in any order based on what they're working on. The book also talks about why it's so important to keep tools in good shape and to be organized and careful when working with wood. This sets the stage for the rest of the book, which goes into detail about different tools, how to use them, and tips for good woodworking.
