Excerpt from Pretty Arts for the Employment of Leisure Hours: A Book for LadiesThe sculptor's chisel and mallet have been wielded by the hands of Ladies, and many of the publications Of our day are illustrated by their gravers, not only, therefore, have the subjects of wood-carving, modelling in clay, and wood-engraving, been treated of in these pages, but the readers have been asked to use the tenon saw, the hammer, and the chisel, in the construction of drawing-models, and thus they will be enabled to apply their powers in making such other small fancy articles as they may desire.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
