Title Introduction to Early American Masonry, Stone, Brick, Mortar and Plaster
Summary From a lecture series at Columbia University, this book looks at masonry in Early American buildings through 1860. Primary emphasis is placed on the materials, sources, tools, and processes employed; little attention is given to architectural effects and social circumstances. For the most part, the book is devoted to manual work. Includes footnotes, suggestions for further study, and index.
