The title of this book describes it very well. It covers the different techniques used that are very specific to log construction and offers good advice. The pictures show proper usage and methods and the authors drawings seem very good and helpful, such as how to build your own log trusses. Out of about 30 books on log construction, this is one of the top 5 to have in your reference library.

I consider this book has a very clear and easy language also helping people unexperienced in the process of building a log house. It provides very useful information even for the beginers to construct main elements of their log house such as footings, walls, windows, doors, roof, joists,framewalls and others. The drowings and pictures are excellent providing guidence during the construction process. In some pages, construction process is detailed on a sample plan for proper interpretation of the complete process by the builder. Additionally, some useful floor plans are also briefly introduced, but complete construction plans are available from the writer upon request with payment of corresponding price.

You take the title of the book and put it into Google and you will find the author sells the book $7 cheaper than here.
