This book was wonderful! I am basically a construction know-nothing but found it very accessible. At the same time, it would be a good choice for someone more skilled who wanted a primer to alternative building.

The book is mostly about design and problem-solving principles that could apply to any thoughtfully sited and well-built house. There are lots of step-by-step instructions, but they're there to illustrate principles rather than teach you every possible building technique. The authors are also super-pragmatic about their use of natural building techniques and warn you against jumping on the eco bandwagon for no reason.

In fact, I decided that if we end up building our dream house, we're not likely to use any of these techniques (with the exception of lath and plaster on a stick frame). I will probably seek out another title that discusses eco-friendly stick houses in more depth, but I'm glad that I started with this book to orient me.
