Practical Book of Architecture

Whilst the greatest effort has been made to ensure the quality of this text, due to the historical nature of this content, in some rare cases there may be minor issues with legibility. In this task the author feels that the opportunity is as great as the responsibility, and that in the following pages it may be possible permanently to remove the subject of architecture as a whole from its present classification as a subject technical and place it in its true position as a subject of general and intimate con tact with the every-day life of all of us.
