Default help finding instructions

Several years ago I had a book that explained how to carve an adirondack hermit. It was a man that had a seperately carved basket glued to to his back. In that book was also a man caqrrying a canoe. I've searched everywhere to find this book. Does anyone out there know what that book is called and where I can get a copy.

Thanks

I remember the book, I no longer have it. I am pretty sure it was one by Rick Butz. Maybe that can narrow your search.

Try the local libraries--especially if they have an inter-loan program. Otherwise here's the best prices and availability for used and new copies of the book.

It's the Adirondack guide and boat on pages 88-89.
