Discovering Timber Framed Buildings (Pb) – Richard Harris
"Much of the literature on timber framing techniques is a forest of technical jargon in which, very often, the human beings seem to have been lost. Easily the best introduction that avoids this is Richard Harris’ brilliant book Discovering Timber Framed Buildings which as well as its clarity and brevity contains a great deal of deep thinking and subtle insights. The newcomer to the field is advised to read this book three or four times carefully before moving on to Harris’ later articles."

Matthew Johnson. Professor of Archaeology, University of Southampton and author of English Houses 1300-1800: vernacular architecture, social life.
