 Art of The Stonemason
Finally a book that really tells you something and gives you instructions. Very happy with this one.
I like the layout of topics
The book arrived in excellent condition. I have found the information within it to be very useful with things I already knew and great information on things I did not.
 Good, but better options available
While a good review of proper stoneworking, I felt that the author put too much "art" into this book and not enough science. There are some very nice ideas for building with stone, but this is not a book I would recommend for someone just starting out.
Excellence
How many other beautiful mediums are as long-lasting as stone. For man, it is as close as one may come to the eternal. This is a wonderful book by a master stonemason. The diaghrams and advice are helpful and wise. I recommend it to everyone who would ply their hands to work in stone no matter what level of expertise they already have.
Must read for building stone walls
I thought this book was really put together good. It has step by step and detailed instructions on how to build stone walls. If you are looking to do stone work I suggest buying this book.
