Forever fascinated by canes, the author has always collected them?he even has his grandma's and grandpa?s walking sticks. And, as a professional woodcarver, he knows there?s a good market for them. Walking sticks come in three basic categories: the cane, which is a walking aid or a gentleman?s walking stick; the staff or hiking stick, which is head-high; and the chest-high quarterstaff, which Tom?s grandpa used to call a ?thunk stick.? Each of these types is generously represented among the 86 patterns in this book. Their designs include everything from fish to dragons and birds to beavers. This is a valuable reference book for all carvers.
