"In recent years American furniture history has become a vital, evolving, and increasingly popular area of inquiry focusing not just on furniture as objects but on the economic, social, and political contexts in which furniture was produced and used. Promising to be the journal of record in its field, American Furniture presents new research on furniture, design, production, use, and appreciation. Begun in 1993, this annual provides a forum on furniture history, technology, connoisseurship, and conservation by foremost scholars in the field. It is the only interdisciplinary journal devoted exclusively to furniture made or used in the Americas from the seventeenth century to the present. American Furniture will become a standard reference in decorative arts and American studies, museums, historical societies, and libraries." - from back of book.
