3.0 out of 5 stars Okay, Ive seen better, July 4, 2001
By Timothy A Clayton (Culleoka, TN United States) - See all my reviews
This work is a well written primer to log home building, covers all major points of building, but does not go far into depth. Tends to strongly discourage owner-builders (although this may not be a bad thing. This is more difficult than a bird house.) This book is far from a step by step construction manual. For the curious may be a good pace to start.
