Written by Joseph Bernard Wagner in 1917, the book provides detailed explanations of the different methods used to season wood, including air and kiln drying, and the benefits and drawbacks of each. The author also delves into the characteristics and properties of various types of wood, including their strength, durability, and resistance to decay. He discusses the importance of proper seasoning in achieving desired properties, such as reducing shrinkage and warping, and improving the wood's workability and finish. The book covers a wide range of topics related to wood seasoning, including the effects of temperature, humidity, and air circulation on the process, as well as the use of chemical treatments and preservatives. It also provides practical advice for woodworkers and manufacturers on selecting and preparing wood for specific applications, such as furniture, construction, and shipbuilding. Overall, Seasoning of Wood is a valuable resource for anyone involved in the woodworking or lumber industry, providing a wealth of information on the science and art of preparing wood for use in a variety of applications.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
