I'm sure some of you have already read "Factory Man" by Beth Macy as it has been out for a few years now, but it was new to me and I highly recommend it to all you wood butchers out there.

JUST added it to my list for library today.
Good timing Dave

Just looked on Amazon. They have two versions. One for $821.94 and the other for $9.35. Both are paperback. Wonder which one I should add to my cart?

Aah they HAD it
Darn...it's non-fiction
Looks interesting...we have quite a few small furniture makers in Maine still commanding premium prices
Thanks Dave!

I read it a while ago...it's pretty interesting. In the intro from the author she mentions that her mom (I think?) worked for the Grimes Mfg company. It's founder, Warren Grimes, was Ted Hall's grandfather!
