Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Earthwork: And Its Cost
We might cite innumerable instances where the meagre cost data given are given without stating the rates of wages or the prices of materials. Indeed it is the exception rather than the rule to find those units stated. Writers, for the most part, seem to think that the dollar is the only unit needed, forgetting that the real unit is the price of labor per hour.
