The standard work of masonry, Stonework, is a seminal work featuring over 100 illustrations of different patterns of stonework. Each pattern is discussed in detail, focusing on the pros and cons of the work. A quintessential dwarven work, the meaning of each pattern to the dwarfish people is discussed as well - what patterns are appropriate for a feast hall and what patterns belong only at holy sites. Much insight into dwarven society can be gleaned from this terse and illustrative text.
