Since its original publication in 1969 by Yankee, Inc., Vrest
Orton's classic book on fireplace design has gone through numerous
printings and has brought about a revival of the Rumford fireplace.
The basic principles that Count Rumford set forth in 1795 describe
the construction of a large shallow fireplace which does not smoke
and which throws out much more heat than many of today's fireplaces
which send too much of the heat up the chimney. This new edition
contains some practical notes by Wally Leeds, a mason in Tunbridge,
Vermont who builds Rumford fireplaces today.
