"As an indispensible new resource, this book belongs in every design library. Effectively connecting many of the dots that have gone missing from previous works about the American Arts and Crafts movement, it also firmly establishes the important role played by the Northwest region in its well-deserved and proper context. It is destined to enrich the work of present and future scholars, while serving to inform a growing number of collectors and afficionados fascinated with this period."
—Paul Duchscherer, Historian and author of Beyond the Bungalow and Along the Bungalow Lines and the series The Bungalow, Inside the Bungalow, and Outside the Bungalow.
"For too long, the extraordinary history of the Arts and Crafts movement in the Pacific Northwest has been overlooked; finally, this is remedied. Covering everything from bungalows to textiles, ceramics to expositions, fine press printing to painting and photography, Kreisman and Mason have pulled together years of research to produce a monograph that is not only compellingly readable but authoritative, sweeping in scope yet rich in detail and images. Whether you are an enthusiast or a scholar, a collector or a connoisseur, this book is a must for your bookshelf."
—Bruce Smith, Author, with Yoshiko Yamamoto, of The Beautiful Necessity: Decorating with Arts & Crafts and founder of The Tabby and The Arts & Crafts Press
