THE DEVELOPMENT OF CARPENTRY, 1200-1700 - AN ESSEX STUDY
Published by David & Charles. 1st. 1969
Very good condition in a very good dustwrapper. The dating of timber buildings is notoriously difficult, but an informed examination of the carpenters' joints used can provide definite clues. The jointing techniques are here classified, and their courses of development and decline are discussed; they are also illustrated in precise detail in their chronological sequence. Brown cloth boards, gilt title to spine. B/w photos and illustrations. 232 pages including index.
Boards mottled. Foxing to text block. Tape marks and names in ink to endpapers. Else contents clean. Blue dustwrapper is edge-rubbed, a little scuffed and is foxed to verso.
