The Stripper's Guide to Canoe-Building

by David Hazen

Still considered the "bible" of woodstrip boat construction, this book is now in its sixth edition. It comes with six full size patterns from which at least nine different canoes and kayaks can be made. The drawings are basic designs for recreational, cargo, and faster downriver canoes, as well as a recreational two-person kayak and a "grand turismo" speed demon.
