Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Rudiments of Practical Bricklaying, in Six Sections: 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.
