Peter Ericson, the author of "My Woodworking Life, A Mystical Journey" has chronicled a combination of a life's occupation of crafting fine pieces of hardwood furniture with sightings of Mystical occurrences that have highlighted his life's path. The book is truly unique. Like most of all the photos and drawings were conceived then produced by the author, likewise, the concept of the book has been built. The cover is an allegory conceived by the author, then brought to life in painted form by one of his daughters. There are six hand crafted maps by a second daughter. The twenty-two chapters follow in line the twenty-two locations where the author practiced his profession. Therefore, the book is geographical in nature while at the same time detailing the culture of each chosen location. The book is visually wonderful to look through. The text is easy to read as if we are in conversation. The book is educational, inspirational as well as thought provoking. This book is not meant to be one and done, but timeless, to be read and sold repeatedly.
