Review
Alston Deas' The Early Ironwork Of Charleston is a unique study of a distinctive feature of South Carolinian architecture that often cross over from being a strictly utilitarian dwelling protective mechanism to a widely appreciated work of art. Alston Deas has combined years of study and research to provide a kind of building by building tour of the best examples of Charleston's early iron work in great detail. The line-drawing reproductions are painstakingly accurate and the descriptive text provides context and detail that will be greatly appreciated by the reader. Of special interest is the page devoted to "shutter guards". A comprehensive index and bibliography further enhance the value of The Early Ironwork Of Charleston for both the architectural student and the non-specialist general reader with an interest in historical preservation and architectural history. -- Midwest Book Review
