This book brings together all the necessary information for the proper construction of a beautiful dry stone masonry. Whether you want to build a boundary wall, reconstruct a retaining wall, or embark on constructing a cabin similar to those picturesque ones scattered throughout Southern France, you need to rediscover the gradually disappearing know-how of the peasant mason. Christian Lassure, a recognized specialist in dry stone architecture, has passionately contributed to the rediscovery of these traditional techniques over the past thirty years. He generously shares all the keys, from the foundation trench to the secrets of corbelled vaults. Attention: The ePub version of this digital book is in fixed-layout.
