Chronicling American cane-making from 1607 through 1953, this beautifully illustrated book features canes in the context of American history. An ambitious and scholarly volume that includes over 900 images, this book features many of the canes shown at the celebrated cane exhibit at the Cooper Hewitt Museum in New York in the mid980s. Written by a cane collector and walking-stick expert whose private collection was estimated to be around 1,300 canes and whose enthusiasm inspired museums and wealthy private collectors to invest in the field, this book displays decades of work and dedication to the craft. Presented are canes used by past political figures, canes made of glass, and canes carved by soldiers from the American Revolution to World War II.
