Hypnotic. [Langlands] begins to see not just the beauty of an object. but the deeper purpose for which each has been created. -New York TimesFaced with an endless supply of mass-manufactured products, we find ourselves nostalgic for goods bearing the mark of authenticity-hand-made tools, local brews, and other objects produced by human hands. Archaeologist and medieval historian Alexander Langlands reaches as far back as the Neolithic period to recover our lost sense of crft, combining deep history with detailed scientific analyses and his own experiences making traditional crafts. Crft brims with vivid storytelling, rich descriptions of natural landscape, and delightful surprises that will convince us to introduce more crft into our lives. 15 black and white illustrations
