In Hidden Treasures: Searching for Masterpieces of American Furniture, brothers Leigh Keno and Leslie Keno of PBS's Antiques Roadshow tell how they grew into the antiques experts they are today Leigh at Christie's and now in his own business, and Leslie at Sotheby's. While relating how they have discovered, acquired and sold important pieces, they teach how to tell the good from the bad and recall the spectacular finds that add excitement to their work. Fans of the PBS series and collectors and lovers of fine furniture will all enjoy their efforts. An extensive glossary helps with terms, the bibliography supplies sources for further research and the four-color photos add to the enjoyment. 14-city author tour.
