Ara Marcus Daniels (born 1884) is an author whose dates and nationality are not clearly recorded, and the publicly available information about him is very limited. Only one work by him is known, Chimneys & Fireplaces. Judging from its title, the book belongs to the literature on building construction or home building, discussing practical matters such as the construction, masonry and use of chimneys and fireplaces, and may have been intended for builders, house designers or general household readers. Works of this kind usually emphasize practical instructions and the summary of experience rather than theoretical exposition. Because biographical material is lacking, his life, education and full body of writing cannot be reliably established; for now only this single work offers a glimpse of his area of interest, and further information remains to be verified.
