An excellent technical handbook for stone conservators - By: , 09 Dec 1998
This book, which is in two parts, is an excellent resource for anyone involved in the conservation of ancient stone buildings. It's a technical handbook & covers everything from structural failure to repointing ashlar joints. There is also good coverage of the pros & cons of cleaning & surface treatments. Whilst some of the technology has moved on (it was published in 1990), it's still a useful resource to have in your library.
