Description
How to Build Impossible Things: Lessons in Life and Carpentry by Mark Ellison is a thought-provoking exploration of the skills and mindset required to build something truly remarkable. With refreshing candour, Mark shares his own journey from a self-proclaimed 'serial dropout' to a successful carpenter, revealing the lessons he's learned along the way.
Through a series of engaging stories and insightful reflections, Mark exposes the messy realities behind the perfect facade, and shows how the skills he's developed in his workshop can be applied to building a life on your own terms. This is a book about the satisfaction and joy that comes from doing something well for a long time, and the possibilities that await when we forge our own path.
Part memoir, part guide, How to Build Impossible Things is a worthwhile read for anyone looking to build something truly remarkable, whether that's a home, a career, or a life.
