Book Description
This book is a comprehensive guide to regional differences in early American furniture. It will assist the collector, dealer, and auctioneer in determining where and when antique furniture was made. The book is unique in that it covers all the major furniture producing regions from the time of the first settlements until American furniture begins to lose its regional character in the first decades of the nineteenth century. The almost 700 illustrations focus on furniture most likely to be seen in the home and marketplace. In addition to many hundreds of illustrations of New England, Middle Atlantic, and Southern pieces, there is a chapter on the regional use of cabinet woods, essays on the furniture of the different regions, and detailed illustrations of regional carving, turning, and construction practices. There is no other book half as useful in determining the who, when, and where of early American furniture. 2006 values.

Book Description
Excerpt from The Caroline Coleman Duke Collection of Early American Furniture and Objects of Art: The Most Important and Largest Collection of Its Kind Ever Gathered in the South, Containing Fine Pieces in Walnut, Pine and Mahogany Gathered in Virginia, North Carolina, and South Carolina The Anderson Galleries have now the pleasure of offer ing by public auction the important collection of early Ameri can furniture gathered by Mrs. Caroline Coleman Duke, of Richmond, Virginia. Mrs. Duke is of an old and well-known Southern family. She has been active for years in every en deavor to preserve the traditions, historic reminiscences and art treasures of the South, individually and in connection with the various patriotic and historic societies of Virginia. She has collected antique furniture all over the South, going as far as Georgia. Her collection is typically Southern, and brings to the Northerner a distinctive flavor of an unknown land. It is an unknown land indeed. Northerners go in in creasing numbers southward. The South, before the Civil War a land of romance to the Northerner, has again become the land of romance; and, by a strange irony of fate, the North erner tries to penetrate the spirit of this land and this romance, by patronizing the Hot Springs and White Sulphur resorts in Virginia, Pinehurst and Asheville in North Carolina, Augusta in Georgia, and in Florida the semi-tropical Winter resorts, efliciently run by Northerners in a Southern stage setting. The real South is veiled in a Fata Morgana, a mirage that conceals what it seems to make clear. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
