A Stone Lovers' Treasure! January 6, 2009 I am proud to own and use this gorgeously illustrated, instructive book. For anyone who loves to create with stone 'from scratch'...this is definitely a 'must-have.'

Delivery great November 26, 2008 Order and delivery were great but the book was not exactly what I was hoping for.
Great Pictures of Design Ideas! November 16, 2008 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
Beautiful, large pictures of finished designs and step by step instructions. Oriented toward the beginner rather than the professional. Just being able to point to a picture and say "That is what I want" is worth the price of the book. I want to go out and build a stone path right now!

Pick this up if you are always at Menards, Home depot, or you just like to play with rocks, on a friday night. It did occur to me after I read this, that my friends may think that I am wierd, because I read a book about rocks and how to place rocks, all on a...you guessed it...FRIDAY NIGHT! LOL! I am not cool!
