Fireplaces and Chimneys

** "Fireplaces and Chimneys" by Arthur H. Senner and T. A. H. Miller is an instructive resource created as a Farmers' Bulletin by the U.S. Department of Agriculture in the 1940s. It gives a detailed view of designing and building fireplaces and chimneys, especially for homeowners and farmers managing their own construction projects. The main goal is to grant important knowledge for creating architectural structures that are not only visually attractive, but also safe and work well. The book goes over key topics, for example planning basics, flue measurement, repairs, chimney height rules, and qualities of fireplaces. It also talks about outdoor fireplaces and barbecue pits, as well as offering useful suggestions and building techniques. This book is great for people wanting to safely construct functional fireplaces and chimneys in the countryside and on farms. **
