Reseña del editor

Excerpt from The Architect, or Practical House Carpenter: Illustrated by Sixty-Four Engravings, Which Exhibit the Orders of Architecture, and Other Elements of the Art; Designed for the Use of Carpenters and Builders

I; manner in which my former publications on Architecture have been received, and the want of a practical treatise on that subject, adapted to the present style of building in our own country, are the principal motives which induce me to place this work before the public.
