When a tree is felled. the wood is green and is easy to cut, split, shave and shape. As it dries, the wood shrinks and hardens—and it becomes vastly more difficult to work, do the old days, woodworkers relied on the ease with which green wood could be worked to make the parts they needed, and on the way wood shrinks to hold those parts together. These old ways have almost been lost, but are revived here for the 20th century woodworkers.
MAKE A CHAIR FROM A TREE is a lively and informative introduction to the old ways of splitting and shaping wood straight from the tree to make a light and beautiful, yet rugged, chair.

He tells you how to fell a tree, split suitable pieces from it and shape those pieces into the parts of the chair.
