About the author

JH

Johannes Heuvel

Best known for a close look at craftsmanship in colonial Williamsburg, this little-documented writer appears to have focused on early American furniture making and the working lives behind it. Reliable biographical details are scarce, which only adds a bit of mystery to the name on the title page.
