An ominous air hangs about Capitol Hills historic Croke-Patterson Mansion. Rumors of spirits and strange events have cast a shadow across its elegant Gilded Age facade. The lonely halls are haunted with stories of a doctors wife who committed suicide and the ghostly figure of a young woman who appears to visitors. Tenants of the building have also claimed to hear the cries of children; and dark specters in the basement prevent even the heartiest souls from staying for too long. Join authors Ann Alexander Leggett and Jordan Alexander Leggett as they try to unravel the mysteries that have plagued this Denver mansion for over a century.

1 of 1 people found the following review helpful. All The Important Admixtures Are IncludedBy Aung Htun".....The book is divided into 10 chapters and ALL THE IMPORTANT ADMIXTURES ARE INCLUDED.Each chapter contains a list of important recent references that should be a useful guide for further reading.A chapter on "Cement Science" was included to describe the most recent concepts so that the information presented in subsequent chapters could easily be followed.The last chapter on "Patents" describes how a variety of materials (natural; synthesized or waste) can be utilized as admixtures for various purposes.The handbook is intended for the scientist;technologist and the practitioner.It should be of use as reference material for the engineer;architect;concrete technologist;manufacturer and use of concrete and concrete admixtures.It is also intended for use by cement scientists;material scientists and students of concrete technology....."[from the book of preface by V.S.
