Comments from our editors:
In the old days people had to rely on tools & their own muscle power to get a job done.

Tools and Gadgets describes the tools used by farmers, woodworkers, metalworkers, millers, and printers. It takes a close look at the gadgets found in the home, general store, doctor's office, and farm, such as cherry pitters, apple peelers, mustache cups, clock jacks, and fleams.

You will be introduced to the gadgets that fascinated children long ago, as well as some mystery gadgets.

This book is an excellent tool to be used before and after visits to historic communities!
