The Rudiments of Practical Bricklaying
Originally published in 1890, this useful guide is divided into six sections covering; General Principles of Bricklaying; Arch Drawing, Cutting, and Setting; Different kinds of pointing; Paving, Tiling, Materials; Slating, and Plastering; Practical Geometry, Mensuration, etc...The object of this little work is to assist young beginners and others who, though in the trade many years, have not had the opportunity of seeing so much of the higher branches of practice as they might desire. I also trust it will not be thought unworthy the notice of the more skilful mechanic. ....Many of the earliest books, particularly those dating back to the 1900's and before, are now extremely scarce and increasingly expensive. We are republishing these classic works in affordable, high quality, modern editions, using the original text and artwork.
