description: Stone is one of the most beautiful, enduring building materials available. Cody Macfie, a third-generation stonemason and writer whose work has appeared in "Fine Homebuilding" and other magazines, is unequalled at explaining how to work with this wonderful resource. He offers a wealth of information on all the basics, from tools to mortar and site preparation to pattern design. A rich selection of photographs and illustrations show every step of the 20 attractive projects, including a simple and inviting walkway that takes less than a weekend to construct, stately columns at a driveway entrance and a new facade for a fireplace.
