Description:This book presents guidance, theory, methodologies, and case studies for analyzing tree-rings to accurately date and interpret historic buildings and landscapes.Written by two long-time practitioners in the field of dendrochronology, the research is grounded in the fieldwork data of approximately 200 structures and landscapes. By scientifically analyzing the tree rings of historic timbers, preservationists can obtain valuable information about construction dates, interpret the evolution of landscapes and buildings over time, identify species and provenance, and gain insight into the species matrix of local forests. Authors Darrin Rubino and Christopher Baas demonstrate, through full colour illustrated case studies and methodologies, how this information can be used to interpret the history of buildings and landscapes and assist preservation decision-making.Over 1000 samples obtained from more than 40 buildings including high style houses, vernacular log houses, and timber-framed barns are reported.
