A book for makers, for seekers of all kinds, an exhilarating look into the heart and soul of artisansand how their collective wisdom can inspire us all.'Despite our technological advances, were busier than ever, our lives more frazzled. Thats why the handmade object, created with care and detail, embodying a history and a tradition, is enormously powerful. It can cut through so much and speak in ways that we dont often hear, or that weve forgotten.' Eric Gorges, from A Craftsmans LegacyIn this joyful celebration of skilled craftsmen, Eric Gorges, a corporaterefugeeturnedmetalshaper, taps into a growing hunger to get back to whats real. Through visits with fellow artisanscalligraphers, potters, stone carvers, glassblowers, engravers, woodworkers, and moremany of whom hes profiled for his popular television program, Gorges identifies values that are useful for all of us: taking time to slow down and enjoy the process, embracing failure, knowing when to stop and when to push through, and accepting that perfection is an illusion. Most of all, A Craftsmans Legacy shows how all of us can embrace a more creative and authentic life and learn to focus on doing what we love.
