In a world without wood, we might not be here at all. Without wood, we wouldn't have had the fire, heat, and shelter that allowed us to expand into the colder regions of the planet. If civilization somehow did develop, our daily lives still would be vastly different: there would be no violins, baseball bats, chopsticks, or wine corks. The book you are now holding wouldn't exist. At the same time, many of us are removed from the world where wood is shaped and celebrated every day. That world is inhabited by a unique assortment of eccentric craftsmen and passionate enthusiasts who have created some of the world's most beloved musical instruments, feared weapons, dazzling architecture, sacred relics, and bizarre forms of transportation. In A Splintered History of Wood, Spike Carlsen has uncovered the most outlandish characters and examples, from world-champion chainsaw carvers to blind woodworkers, the Miraculous Staircase to the Lindbergh kidnapping case, and many more, in a passionate and personal exploration of nature's greatest gift.

At this time of writing, The Mobi A Splintered History of Wood: Belt-Sander Races, Blind Woodworkers, and Baseball Bats has garnered 10 customer reviews with rating of 5 out of 5 stars. Not a bad score at all as if you round it off, it’s actually a perfect TEN already. From the looks of that rating, we can say the Mobi is Good TO READ!

I have Spikes book on tips for woodworking and it is very well done. It referenced this book, but in this book Spike put in his whole heart and soul. He takes you places and describes things so well you would think you were right there with him. His descriptions of the many aspects of wood and woodworking are just super! He covers log cutting contests - to the building or musical instruments - to forensic analysis in criminal cases. I have never been board reading any chapter in this book. Spike has a talent that keeps the reader engaged and interested. It's not just a historical book about wood. It covers the lives of some of the most famous people we all know and many we don’t.Overall it's about the things that a woodworker would find most interesting that’s not about the fundamentals of woodworking. It’s more about the many aspects of wood, people and processes. It’s how we got from woodworking thousands of years ago to where we are today. There are many of those processes that are still in use today. The tools may have gotten better, but some of the true craftsmen still do it the way it was done thousands of years ago. This is a great book and I truly enjoyed reading it. The copy I purchased came from a library in Florida. It was almost new with nice clean pages and the only marking was from the library. There is the old saying “don’t judge a book by its cover”. I’m glad the people in the library district in Florida where this copy came from didn’t ever open it. To me it is a valued treasure I keep in my glass bookcase which is reserved for the special books.
