Description

The Wheelwright's Shop by George Sturt In the late 19th century, craftsmanship and work were deeply intertwined. This account of life as a third-generation English wheelwright offers a unique glimpse into a time when social milieus valued craft, art, and life in equal measure. Sturt's story provides both technical insight into his craft and a vivid portrayal of daily life among craftsmen in turn-of-the-century England. A poignant lament for the loss of a way of working that prioritised personal values over efficiency, this book invites readers to consider alternative approaches to work and its spiritual significance. A fascinating exploration of a bygone era, The Wheelwright's Shop is a thought-provoking read for anyone interested in the intersection of craft, work, and life.
