The British carpenter: or, a treatise on carpentry : containing the most concise and authentick rules of that art, in a more useful and extensive method, than has been made publick
The British Carpenter is a 1765 treatise on carpentry by Francis Price, published in London by H. Baldwin for A. Millar, and aimed at working carpenters and builders. Its plates are precise engraved line drawings of classical column orders, cornices, and mouldings with measuring scales alongside, which a designer could take as clear models for architectural profiles and proportion.
