by Clarke Snell;  Tim Callahan

www.larkbooks.com/catalog?isbn=9781579905323

This detailed and well-illustrated book is an excellent primer on owner-designed and site-inspired green building. Snell and Callahan take readers step-by-step through the creation of a small guesthouse using a variety green building materials. Although some details about integrating electricity and plumbing with these unfamiliar materials are conspicuously absent, this book is still of great value to anyone considering using alternative building materials.
