First published by Yankee Magazine in 1977, this book remains the
authority on how old-time brick ovens were designed and used. The
book explains the evolution of the brick oven from the 17th through
the 19th centuries, out lines the basic points to consider in
building such an oven today, and describes in detail construction
of a brick oven, ash pit complex, including the tools required,
procedures to be followed, types of brick and mortar, lintels and
doors, plans, dimensions, and actual brickwork, graphically
illustrated with photographs, diagrams and drawings. Also covered
is how to heat and use such an oven, once built.
Richard M. Bacon has written numerous articles for such
publications as Yankee Magazine and the Sunday New York times. He
also wrote The Yankee Book of Forgotten Arts, Simon & Schuster,
1978.
