Yes, He gave a series of lectures in germany; the book pulls that material together. There was considerable trouble getting the results published, no one thought it could ever sell; I suspect he aimed the lectures at people with some experience in building, using a variety of methods. It really is hard to do things entirely using historical technology. Lighting is something we all take for granted for example, try working by lantern and firelight alone sometime; I will grant you modern windows (instead of oiled parchment in frames). -- Dana Emery To get on or off this list see list information at http://www.cs.dartmouth.edu/~wbc/lute-admin/index.html
