Cordwood Building: The State of the Art by Rob Roy

...with a little help from his friends.
This new book (March 2003) collects the experiences of 25 of the world's leading cordwood masons, from early pioneers Jack Henstridge (who writes about Lomax corners) and Cliff Shockey (the double-wall technique) right up to modern visionaries writing about paper-enhanced mortar, cob as mortar, and more.

author/editor Rob Roy's new contributions include a basic cordwood primer; more about cordwood and cob (cobwood); code issues; a personal retrospective; and an article about cordwood's future. This is the book we now use as a textbook at Earthood's Cordwood Masonry workshops."
