Speaking of quarries...
Does anyone have any recommendations on articles/books written on the history
of stone quarries (i.e. early cutting techniques, types of popular stone,
business practices, shipping, purchasing, etc)?
At one time, the area where I live once had several profitable stone quarry
businesses, and I've really wanted to research their history. Unfortunately I
know bupkus about the subject, and I want to learn more.
Any suggestions greatly appreciated.
