©1987, stated Second Printing, softcover, 168 pages with Index, lots of illustrations, diagrams, drawings, charts, and photographs, measures about 11 inches X 8 1/2 inches.

There are a few pages that stick out slightly on the right open side of the book. It seems to be a manufacturer defect. A few of these pages are taped at the spine with transparent tape. All of the pages are in the book. Otherwise this very hard to find book is in Good condition!

"This book is intended for all designers involved with implementing a fountain design.

Various texts explain the many facets and implementations of fountain design. The main thrust of this book is to elaborate on the literature and provide information for the specification and construction of fountain elements. After developing a strong concept for a fountain, the designer must determine the feasibility of beginning the design implementation phase of the project."
