Michael Pekovich's approach to designing and building furniture, as well as life in general, is that simple is usually better. A furniture maker, photographer, writer, teacher, and graphic designer, he puts his talents to use as the creative director at Fine Woodworking. Mike shares a small home in the woods of Connecticut with his wife, two children, and a cat.
"As practical as it is inspirational, I think that any woodworker
will thoroughly enjoy The Why and How of Woodworking".-- "Canadian
Woodworking & Home Improvement."
"It's no surprise that the art director of Fine Woodworking should
turn in such a beautifully rendered package, but the wisdom Mike
Pekovich imparts herein might just unexpectedly delight you...He
delivers the secrets of woodworking alchemy: keep it simple,
sharpen, sharpen again, and value your mistakes."--comedian, actor,
woodworker, and author of Good Clean Fun "Nick Offerman"
"Like the furniture Michael Pekovich builds, his book is
disarmingly beautiful and unfailingly useful. It brims with
essential information for the designer and maker of furniture, all
of it lucidly explained and illustrated. Pekovich is the best kind
of teacher --one who has never stopped learning himself. His book
will be an enduring wellspring of inspiration--for its furniture,
its photographs, and for the generous spirit of its
writing."--Jonathan Binzen, Deputy Editor "Fine Woodworking"
"Mike Pekovich has done a gentle and beautiful job of explaining
his approach to being in the shop and to becoming a furniture
maker...Everyone can learn from his experience."--Gary Rogowski
