From one of the foremost experts on slate roofs in the United States today, Joseph Jenkins has completely revised, expanded, and updated The Slate Roof Bible into a third edition, including more than a decade's worth of additional experience, research and information

Joseph Jenkins climbed on his first slate roof in 1968, authored the first edition of
The Slate Roof Bible in 1997, and published the second edition in 2003. Both editions received national awards. Jenkins is still very active in the slate roofing industry.

The third edition, hardbound, completely updates and expands the material in the second edition, with more emphasis on the craft of slate roof installation. Expanded sections include slate siding, eyebrow dormers, turrets, soldering, flashings, international slate, American slate history, slating styles, installation and repair tips, and trade secrets. Dozens of new color photographs have been added, as well as step-by-step illustrations and line drawings.

The Slate Roof Bible belongs on the shelf of every architect, roofer, slate roof owner, architectural consultant, history buff, and anyone in the roofing industry.

"The Slate Roof Bible is a fine book, filled with fascinating information about slate: its history, the industry, and the way to work with it properly."—Fine Homebuilding

"The Slate Roof Bible is a fine book, filled with fascinating information about slate: its history, the industry, and the way to work with it properly...I've been working with slate for a long time; still, I learned from this book some valuable hints and techniques that I've been able to put into practice."Fine Homebuilding

"With over [47] years experience working with slate roofs, Joseph Jenkins has written a book so comprehensive in both historical and technical information that is a definite must-have for any library. Rarely does one read a book expressing such personal enthusiasm and technical knowledge...He masterfully blends technical and historical information with personal anecdotes in a style of writing that roofing (or even for those with experience), this book will develop in the reader an appreciation and understanding of roofing slate and slate roofs. Jenkins has provided the roofing community with a definitive, single-source manual for slate roofing."—Roof Consultants Institute

Joseph Jenkins began self-publishing when he turned his master’s thesis into the non-fiction Humanure Handbook and published it in 1995. The book was execrable, but it has gone on to sell over 85,000 copies in 4 editions, translated in whole or in part into 23 languages.

The non-fiction Slate Roof Bible, 1st edition, received the National Roofing Contractor’s Gold Circle Award. The 3rd edition received no less than 10 book awards.

The Balance Point - a Missing Link in Human Consciousness, is considered “creative non-fiction." It was a 2019 IPPY Bronze Medalist, took 1st place in the Top Shelf Indie Book Awards, and won the New York City Big Book Awards in two separate categories!

Slate Roofs 1926 is a modified reproduction of the original 84-page classic “Slate Roofs,” published in January 1926.

The Compost Toilet Handbook is an illustrated instructional manual explaining how to make, use, and manage compost toilets, which are waste-free toilets that rely on the biological process of composting to recycle toilet material.

Self Publishing Top Ten Tips is a short book Jenkins promised to write if he ever sold more than a million dollars of his own books (he wrote it after topping 3 million).

Direct Democracy and the Curse of the Boiled Frogs, written for Jenkins grandchildren for when they grow up, is an attempt to start a conversation, if not a movement, about transforming government into real democracy.

    Not all books are created equal. This one is the cream of the crop. I'm a carpenter by trade and need to replace a failing asphalt roof on my home. I thought about installing slate but have little knowledge of the process. This book gives you a complete understanding of all that is involved in slate roofing and how to produce a through job. You will need the proper tools so some investment is essential. For a journeyman carpenter, installing a slate roof is in easy reach with the knowledge found in the book.

    This is a well written, very interesting book. For anyone who has aspirations to do a slate roof, or even if you have admired the slate roofs on old buildings, I highly recommend that you read this.
