Fourteen years ago THE MODERN CARPENTERS COM- PANION AND BUILDERS GUIDE was issued, and has since met with a sale of ten thousand copies; which, considering the fact that it has been advertised but very little indeed, shows that it meta want. Some complaint has been made that the illustrations did not always come opposite the descriptions, and many have expressed a desire for a much larger number of floor plans of modern residences, accompanied by elevations or perspectives to show the general style of exterior finish ;others wanted complete framing plans and specifications. For many reasons it has been deemed best to remodel and add to this book, thus bringing it up to date, and meeting most of the above mentioned requirements, and to distinguish this revised book from the former one, it has been decided to call it MODERN CARPENTRY AND BUILDING. Jt must not be inferred that this is a thorough, complete and exhaustive work on carpentry, dealing with framing odd shaped structures, groined arches, and the like.
