Summary:
How to live on your own in the middle of nowhere!
Detailed:
This is an excellent book for those who want to live on their own in the wilderness or for anyone wanting to "Go Green". The cost of building a log home is low with high rewards to those that actually build one. My purpose for getting this book is to have the knowledge to build a log home once I get myself and my family out of the "lower 48" and into the last frontier away from our ever increasing socialist government. The book is great as are many others! If for nothing else, learn how it was and is being done all around the world.

Summary:
Everything you need
Detailed:
This is the best of the cabin building books I've read yet. This book not only shares great technical detail with quality photographs but also discusses how to plan ahead to minimize the chance of mistakes. Discusses what the banks are willing and not willing to finance, land and site selection for building, type of ground to build upon among many other topics in addition to very detailed construction methods.
This may be the only book you need.
