Once upon a time, I had planned to have a book on concrete appear in 2019. But things got away from me--the zeitgeist, my editor said--and so the book for this year is Frenemy Nations: Love and Hate between Neighbo(u)ring States.
That's pretty much ready for the printer, so it's time to plunge back into concrete, specifically Rock of Ages: How Concrete Built the World as We Know It. The plan is to have a revised manuscript ready by mid-September for publication a year from now.
This is a beautiful example of concrete at its best: the floating staircase in the Musée national des beaux arts du Québec. I've got a lot more....but more about that later.
