For thos who are keen on this but prefer books over files, a nice
little reprint exists.  122 pp., sewn binding, good paper.  US$7.50. 


    The Algrove story begins with our publisher, Leonard G. Lee, who
    founded Lee Valley Tools, a mail order company that specializes in
    woodworking and gardening supplies.

    As a skilled woodworker, seasoned gardener and basic
    'jack-of-all-trades', he had accumulated a reference library of
    classic old books on a variety of technical and general
    subjects. Since many of these older books contained a wealth of
    information that is as applicable today as it was 100 or so years
    ago, he decided to publish a selection of these out-of-print
    classics and offer them to his customers at affordable
    prices. Algrove Publishing and our Classic Reprints were born.
