 Rustic Fireplace Lovers Book May 13, 2007
By C. Anderson
"LodgeLover"
Beautiful book written by one of my favorite authorities on rustic!!! I enjoyed this book but had a few reservations . I own all of Ralph Kylloes books and love them but my complaint with this book was,( and he did address this in the book) alot of the pictures of fireplaces were in his previous books so I was already familiar with a majority of them, but he did manage to sneak a few new ones in also that were enjoyable to view. My other complaint would of been the fact the pictures were very small but Im also aware he probably had to do this alot as there were so many pictures and this in return made for a fully loaded book but I found myself using my magnifying glass to zoom in the details of each picture more clearly. Anyone out there building a rustic home or wanting to get ideas on remodeling their current fireplace or simply to treat themselves to some rustic eye candy- this book is for you. Although I myself already own a gorgous floor to ceiling river rock fireplace I still delight in seeing what other rustic lovers have!!! I like to see whats on the mantels, and what kind of andirons they use and fireplace screens as well, not to mention what the rest of the room looks like- these pictures have it all but in smaller scale.

 Doesn't Measure Up To Expectations Jan 07, 2012
By Hugh W
After buying several other books by Mr. Kylloe and being very pleased with them, I found this particular book to be quite disappointing. Many photographs are printed as small, multiple shots on one page, making it difficult to search out details of a large subject (fireplaces), as they appear in a very small photograph. Fewer photographs, printed larger, would have been better, in my opinion-but I'm only the reader/buyer. Secondly, most of the fireplaces are very similar in design and appearance, usualy being constructed in very orderly fashion, using mostly uniformly rectangular/squarish, quarried, blue stone. The photographs themselves are then printed in a cold, bluish light, (as opposed to the wonderfully warm colors in Mr. Kylloe's other books), making this book monotonous and unappealing to me. Finally, there's too much of the same thing, with most examples having very similar styles of rock, color, and similar construction styles to suit me. I found the book dull and uninteresting and wish I'd saved my money.

 Dream on... Jan 02, 2008

You can get sooo lost in these beautiful photographs. After purchasing two, I'm sure to continue collecting Ralph Kylloe's books - what a pro!
