Amazon.com Review

If you know absolutely not the first thing about masonry, here's an excellent basic starter book from the editors of Sunset Magazine that includes clear explanations of tools, materials, and step-by-step guidelines for a wide range of masonry projects for the do-it-yourselfer. Like all of Sunset's how-to books, it's well illustrated, well indexed, and written in clear language to help anyone get a working, hands-on start to the art and science of masonry.

4.0 out of 5 stars Great masonry book for the homeowner., November 7, 1998
By Edward Sedelmeier (Redmond, Washington USA) - See all my reviews
This is a good book for the homeowner who wants to know how to build a garden wall, pave an area, or lay cast concrete. Covers tool selection and uses, building techniques with brick, stone, blocks, adobe, and concrete. Excellent step-by-step instructions and illustrations show you how. Learn tricks of the trade, even how to make you own paving blocks. Also covers maintaining and reparing masonry.
