About the Book

Step back in time to the captivating 14th century, an era marked by a tapestry of war, wonders, and the dawn of the Renaissance. Delve into the riveting dynamics of international trade, birthing the merchant class and giving rise to iconic city-states like Florence and Pisa. As the period unfolds, witness the blossoming of arts and architecture to unprecedented sophistication, propelled by the establishment of universities that facilitated the flow of knowledge.

Yet, amidst the cultural renaissance, the shadow of the 'Black Death' looms large, claiming over 25 million lives, while the 'Hundred Years War' between England and France unfolds over an intriguing 116 years. It's a time of paradoxes, of life and death, war and enlightenment-an era that beckons reflection.

Embark on a journey through the pages of this book, where the first part serves as a treasury of insights for your future projects. From holding your work to creating proportional replicas from ancient manuscripts, the knowledge shared is invaluable. Safety is emphasized throughout, reminding you not to tread unfamiliar ground without the right tools, equipment, and expertise.

The heart of the book unfolds with a series of captivating 14th-century projects, each a meticulous recreation guided by historical accuracy. Discover the intricacies of crafting Bede's Chair, the Pillager's Chest, the Sitting Bed from the Santa Croce Fresco, and more, all masterfully presented by Stephen Wyley and other skilled artisans.

Assuming a basic competence in working with wood, metal, and leather, this book becomes your gateway to honing these skills further. As you progress through the projects, your proficiency naturally grows, with safety always at the forefront. Metalwork enthusiasts will find detailed guidance on manufacturing, purchasing, and fitting metal elements such as hinges and handles.

The metric system, complemented by Imperial/US customary measures, guides you through project dimensions, ensuring consistency within each undertaking. A conversion chart in Appendix 8 provides clarity, fostering a seamless crafting experience.

Venture into the realm of leatherwork, an added dimension to this volume. Uncover the artistry of the bellows and costrel, showcasing leather's versatility-soft and pliable for clothing, sturdy as wood for practical applications.

This book stands on its own, but for a comprehensive understanding of historical sources, furniture form and function, and optimal material usage, the authors suggest referring to "Vikings - Volume 1" (2021). Your journey into the past awaits; may your endeavors be as rewarding as they are enriching. Good luck, and may the force be with you on this immersive historical crafting odyssey.
