40 pp, colour and b/w ills.
The dry stone walls of Britain happen also to be in areas which attract many tourists and so it is not surprising that the walls which are an integral part of the landscape should provoke so many questions: 'When were they built?', 'Who built them?', 'How do they stand up without cement?'. This book answers these and many other questions. The reasons for building dry stone walls, the story of their development, technical details of their construction, regional styles and the state of the craft today are all covered.
Lawrence Garner is a professional writer on landscape and countryside topics. He was the first Director of the Dry Stone Walling Association, and was involved in establishing a professional register and encouraging various types of training for the craft.
