- This book traces projects from back-of-the-envelope sketches and engineering drawings through photographs of the process and the finished products of dozens of pieces of wooden furniture for Temple Israel in Natick, MA and other community endeavors, including a children's play castle at the Morse Institute Library -- book jacket.
- "Does the story of a group of men with the best of intentions but no professional credentials coming together to build a receptacle for their community's most sacred objects deserve to have a book written about them? ... Their work raises an interesting theologicval question : does holiness reside in special places and objects, or can ordinary people take something ordinary and turn it into something sacred by their efforts and their intentions?"--The Foreword.
