The Master Masons To The Crown Of Scotland And Their Works is a book written by Robert Scott Mylne. This book is a comprehensive study of the master masons who worked on the construction of some of the most iconic buildings in Scotland during the 16th and 17th centuries. The book covers the works of architects such as William Schaw, John Mylne, and Robert Mylne, who were responsible for the construction of buildings such as Stirling Castle, Holyrood Palace, and the University of Edinburgh.The book provides a detailed account of the lives and works of these master masons, including their training, their working methods, and the technical and artistic aspects of their craft. It also explores the political and social context in which these buildings were constructed, and the role that the master masons played in shaping the architectural landscape of Scotland.The book is divided into several chapters, each of which focuses on a different aspect of the master masons' work. These chapters cover topics such as the design and construction of castles, palaces, and churches, the use of materials such as stone and timber, and the development of architectural styles such as Renaissance and Baroque.The Master Masons To The Crown Of Scotland And Their Works is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of Scottish architecture and the role that master masons played in shaping it. It is also an engaging read for anyone interested in the art and craft of building, and the cultural and social context in which it takes place.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
