Publisher description
Full Color (CMYK) Edition.This is the reconstructed history of Bond Hill, currently a neighborhood of Cincinnati, Ohio, originally founded just after the Civil War as a railroad suburb on the urban fringe of the most densely populated city on the planet. How did teetotalers, cooperators, railroad moguls, real estate brokers, and radical socialists pool their energies to found a new society and build affordable housing for "men of moderate means"? How did church politics and other critical events shape the social and environmental transformation of a once rural community? This history provides a complete survey of the Bond Hill area, from the post-Colonial period through the Village of Bond Hill's annexation by the City of Cincinnati in 1903, up until the present day.
This monograph presents the extraordinarily inventive and influential furniture/sculpture of Wendell Castle, the trailblazer in the maturation of the Studio Craft movement in America. He has consistently challenged the traditional concept of wooden furniture design and construction with innovative works that transcend a reverence for material.
