Excerpt from Modern Brickmaking In the present volume, the Author has endeavoured to con dense the results of a wide practical experience of all the better known processes, machines, and kilns now in use - both in this country and on the Continent - into convenient limits, and to express this information in terms which shall be readily under stood by all interested in the subject. In other words, he has aimed at clearing up ideas regarding the various processes and appliances used in modern brickmaking and to remove various obscurities at present prevailing in many minds. In this work the Author has had the hearty cc-operation of all the chief firms who supply machines, kilns, and other requirements of the brickmaker, together with the assistance of numerous authors of papers, booklets, and larger treatises (both British and Foreign). Their names will usually be found attached to the illustrations, though the publication of anony mous articles in the trade journals prevents acknowledgment in some cases. Whilst it is not possible to give a complete list, the Author hereby acknowledges, with thanks, his indebtedness to all who have been of assistance to him in the manner indicated, as well as to various members of his staff, without Whose aid this volume could not so readily have been written.

First published in 1976, Bricks tells the story of bricks in Britain. The story of the brick begins with the sun-dried, mud bricks formed with hands alone. Walls built with such bricks have been found in the ruins of Jericho – probably the oldest town in the world. John Woodforde describes bricks and brickmaking in the ancient world and in Europe and America; he gives a comprehensive account of brickmaking in Britain up to the 1970s. He describes the properties of bricks, including those of the unique fletton brick, manufactured by the London Brick Company. The author looks, too, at the equipment and techniques used to fashion bricks, the brickmakers themselves and brickwork of many kinds: in garden walls, sewers, canals, railways and roads as well as in Hampton Court and the Nash terraces of Regent’s Park. This book will be of interest to students of architecture, engineering, chemistry and construction.
