This book and the other 9 or 10 in this series that cover the entire length of the Appalachian trail really defy any critical review. They fill a unique niche and no one else publishes such a guide. For this reason they all earn a "five star" rating here on Paperback Swap. For anyone who wants to attempt any type of hiking project on the trail of any length, these guides are invaluable and irreplacable.

Any Charles McRaven text is excellent. The man brings such warmth and personal feeling to what seems on the surface as a very cold and hard subject - STONE. this book makes the whole conversation of building with stone personal and warm and with a true element of love and respect for working with your hands and creating. this book makes me feel as if I can build ANYTHING with stone. This book transcends the simple title of the book - it opens possibilities and minds.

This is a book of beautiful picture postcards of the Grand Canyon. If you like this kind of book and want a wonderful low cost souvenir of the Grand Canyon, I recommend this book. No prose, no poetry, just pictures.

This is a fascinating book written in an engaging format. It is a combination of Early 20th century Honolulu history, actual mysteries, and news articles of the times, and a fictional detective named McDougal. This book gave me a wonderful feel for Hawaii from the 1920s until the 40s. The author weaves actual history with fictional characters and real settings combined with actual news photos of the events and setttings in the time period to create plausable explanations and action packed stories. Anyone wanting a short history lesson of Hawaii in the days between the world wars and before statehood and who also enjoys mysteries will enjoy this book.

This book thoroughly covers the topic of using stone around your house in gardens or walls or other scenic areas. It is not as much a book about "how to build" with stone as it is a book about "seeing" the land with stone properly placed for best effect.
