3.0 out of 5 stars
simple building,
By A Customer
This review is from: The Homestead Builder: Practical Hints for Handy-men (Paperback)
This is one of many books I bought to learn more about self-sufficient living. The book has a few good points, but the language is hard to understand. The author describes in words how to build log cabins. He doesn't draw diagrams or give diminsions. He makes a few good points about things like where to place fireplaces and bedrooms in order to keep a home as warm as possible. If your looking for a book with hints on building a self-sufficient home, you could get some tips with the book. If your looking for a book on how to build the log cabin, keep looking.

We enjoyed this book more as anthropologie more than how-to-guide. It has some classic lines and the dedication alone is worth the price of the book.

If you want to know how to construction a flame proof wooden chimney, this is the book for you.
Descriptions and or instructions of how to lay out and construct log cabins are all in there. This is how they did it back in the day. |
