This book follows on from New Masters of Woodturning (reviewed AWR#60) in layout and theme but with a new author. Fitzgerald presents 34 wood artists (including AWR contributors Richard Raffan and Andrew Potocnik) who use joinery, turning and carving techniques to make boxes and other objects. Styles are diverse, from sculptural and free-flowing lines, to geometrical, whimsical, and occasionally traditional. Each artist has his or her own chapter with images of their work (non-box work as well) and text by Fitzgerald that aims to give insight into their work practices.
