Guía para la Construcción de Muros de Piedra

Nothing adds charm to a garden like a stone wall for organizing space, supporting the ground, or providing a habitat for lizards, insects, and other garden creatures... as long as they are well-built! For novice builders, the author (a passionate landscape architect with traditional craftsmanship skills) describes all stages of the work: from choosing materials to the size of stones, including tools and mortar making. Through a richly illustrated step-by-step guide, he presents different types of walls (enclosures, retaining walls, built with mortar or dry stone, but always using only stones), clearly explaining the most suitable foundations according to the type of terrain or wall height. And if your garden already has old walls, Serge Lapouge teaches us how to maintain or restore them. Please note, this book is available in Spanish only.
