Well, with Global Warming in effect up here in Canada, it looks like spring is going to be 4 weeks early this year…again, like last year.
With that at the front of my mind, I have been casting thoughts towards a stone pathway meandering around my front yard, and possibly in my backyard as well. My research on Amazon brought me to these 4 books:
1. Stone (A Sunset Book) - It’s paperback and simplistic, but i saw it on Amazon for $2.48 used. I dont think you can complain about that. Especially if all you need is a primer.
2. Outdoor Stonework - is a more serious text about stonework. It provides specific step by step, but also the particulars about stone work.
3. Taylor’s Guide to Landscaping
This book isn’t about stone, but I found the chapter on Stonework excellent, and the rest of the book excellent. I think this one is worth picking up just for its general landscaping sense.
