Axe Makers of North America by Allan Klenman Axe Makers of North America is a well-illustrated book that compiles the history of axes and their manufacturers in North America. "During the 'axe age' in America (arbitrarily 1850-1960), axes were a commodity of great importance. Today, only about five manufacturers remain in the U.S. and none in Canada. While the axe is not uniquely North American, its specific use in this land, along with the men who manufactured them, gave them a character all of their own." "A unique contribution to the industrial history of Canada and the United States... Gives an account of the major manufacturers and presents material to assist the historian and collector in the identification of artifacts... An informative record and above all, a pleasant reading experience." - from page 3.
