Treasure Chests traces the fascinating evolution of the boxes that have held the things that people valued most over the centuries. For thousands of years, chests have gone to war, to sea, journeyed with us across entire continents, and held and protected the possessions we hold most dear in our very own homes. From tool chests to toy chests, this book celebrates how extraordinary a box can be when it is made to hold something we treasure.
