Book Synopsis

Rustic and charming or stately and proud, a well-built stone wall can add personality and beauty to your property.

Whatever unique challenges come with your site — poor drainage, sloping ground, or low-quality rubble material — Vivian offers innovative designs and reproducible methods to help you build a beautiful, long-lasting wall.
