[aisle] Colonial trades articles?

[Lou Ann Jacobs]

I am now retired but I recall the books by Edwin Tunis. "Colonial
Craftsmen: And the beginnings of American Industry" sounds like it would
cover the trades you list.

These are illustrated with drawings by the author.  Another is Frontier
Living.

Many are probably out of print. The local public library may have these.

I used them with high school students who were not good readers but needed
to read nonfiction for a social studies class.

Hope that helps.
