The art of doing things well. The Kaufmann Mercantile Guide is a handsome, illustrated field guide to forty-eight essential life skills — from the everyday (frying an egg, brewing coffee, tying a tie) to the aspirational (splitting wood, building a fire, shucking an oyster).

From the founders of the celebrated bespoke goods curator, the book is built on a philosophy of slow living — functionality, quality, and the quiet satisfaction of competence. Five instructional sections — Kitchen, Outdoors, Home, Gardening, and Grooming — pair original step-by-step artwork with sidebars on the best tools for the job, from snowshoes to dibbers. A coffee-table book that earns its keep on the shelf.

For the well-considered life.
