Summary: This book is a companion to the Craft in America PBS television series and to the traveling museum exhibition of the same name. This book will show that craft has never been just about pretty things. It has always been about our things, our inheritance, our personal collections. It is about functionality, about identity, about conceptual thinking, about fun and experiment.
