Heart and Soul of the WoodBy Adele C.I have always enjoyed carving bass-wood roses and various other flower shapes. so when I read the Editors Review in The Magazine Antiques a couple of months ago. about David Esterlys work--and then realized the photo on the cover was of a magnificent carving by him---I immediately ordered a copy of THE LOST CARVING. Wood caving is an unusual topic for a book... Esterly is a natural writer; the reader is immediately brought into the world of the Carver right at page one. I couldnt put the book down. Yes. its a biography about him. but its much more about the heart and soul of creativity. Reading the book also got rid of a carvers block in me. In the end. as Esterly points out. carving wood is JOY! Yes. its frustrating ....but its such joy to sit down and feel the carvers tool start to cut gently into the wood; the hours pass by without notice. Its a wonderful book and I cant thank David Esterly enough for writing it.3 of 3 people found the following review helpful. High quality book and book cover. Superb writing.By Marvin McConougheyThe cover of this fine book is as beautiful as the writing within. The dust jacket designed by Jason Ramirez features raised lettering the color of old ivory on a soft. moss-green background. shading slightly darker along the border. The photography by Gentl Hyers is exquisite: the elaborate details of masterly carving come through vividly. lighted to near-perfection. The hard-back cover is a softer green with a tan back-edging and easy-to-read title. This is an impressively well-designed book by the Viking trademark of the Penguin book company. The text is dark and legible. the writing fluent. and soon one is swept effortlessly away into a pleasurable odyssey of learning.Inside. numerous photographs are strategically placed in a way that enhance the text and are convenient for reference. Here. black and white complement the writing by focusing attention on shape and shadow.Workers in many fields will empathize with David Esterly when he tells of "untold hours of industry for effects that. to all intents and purposes. would be seen by no one." Quality is a harsh taskmaster: "Fifty percent of the effort will achieve ninety percent of the effect." But. "If you allow yourself to stop at that ninety percent. then the carving can never succeed. never really succeed." It is not simply ego: His advice "Forget yourself. It will improve your work." has lasting relevance.If you have done. or are doing. quality work. in any field. this book will resonate.1 of 1 people found the following review helpful.

Esterlys use of language is carved as well -- lovely writing style (a little too flowery for my taste but very good storytelling !). Hats off to this Gibbons scholar and carving restorer - incredible journey.
