Schramm wrote
two books, The Artist-Blacksmith's Craft and My Life as
Artist-Blacksmith. They were originally published in German
in 1935 and 1941 and now are published here in one volume that provides
fascinating detail of the artist's work. Schramm was one of pre-war
Germany's great artist-blacksmiths who not only let his art speak
for his ideals, but who shared his ideals out of concern for the
craft. This edition provides fascinating detail of the artist's
70 years and is a book for the artist-blacksmiths of today, who
carry on the tradition of honesty and integrity at the forge. It
is a book for those who seek to understand a man of ideals and ideas,
from whom we all can learn. Translated by Robert A. Ruhloff he says,
"Schramm's words in The Artist-Blacksmith's Craft speak to
blacksmiths today with just as much importance as they did when
he wrote them, at the age of seventy." Includes a bonus 24-page
booklet, Julius Schramm.
