Query: Yes, Disappointing

I agree with S.L. Norton: the book is long on pretty pictures and short on details. It is mostly a paean to trendy alternative houses built by people with lots of money. It is also a promotional book for the author's building company. Aside from learning that ladder trusses are also called Larsen Trusses and that they are non-load bearing, I didn't get much out of the book. If you want to build a straw/clay house, find another source of information. Unless you like to look at pretty pictures that you can find in Natural Home.
