Daniel G. Ruiz
This book was incredibly helpful. It was just what I wanted and needed. It was in perfect condition. This book completely overviews, with detail, the many different areas of materials used in architecture and construction, from the past to the present. Very detailed and very accurate.

This is BY FAR one of the best and most thorough construction books I've seen to date. There are many drawings and pictures to show what is being talked about. Excellent book.
