I would like to express my sincere appreciation for the contributions of the following individuals that made this book possible. First and foremost, thanks to my family and especially my wife, Jody, and my daughter, Jaime, for their invaluable assistance with writing, transcribing and editing materials for this book. In addition, I would also like to thank Irene Bertils, whose artwork was a real complement to this project. Thanks also to Larry and Carol Yudis, owners and managers of The Woodcraft Shop, for the use of their shop for the step-by-step photo session. A very special thank you goes to Carole Williams for all of her photographic editing work and to my co-author, Jack A. Williams, for the photography included in this book, as well as his constant support, guidance and encouragement throughout this project. A special thanks goes to Marshal Artime, president of the National Bark Carvers Association, for his support and encouragement. I’d also like to thank Jim Hilty for his scientific contributions on the growth of bark.—Rick Jensen
