This book, written by Edmund Beckett, is a comprehensive guide to building, covering the areas of civil, ecclesiastical, and dome construction. The author also delves into the theory behind the construction of the Great Pyramid. The book is aimed at architects, engineers, and builders, but can also be enjoyed by those with an interest in the history and theory of construction. The author provides detailed descriptions of various building techniques, including the use of arches, columns, and domes. He also discusses the historical context of building, including the influence of ancient Greek and Roman architecture. The section on the Great Pyramid explores the mathematical and geometric principles behind its construction, as well as its historical and cultural significance. Overall, this book is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the art and science of building.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
