The Dream Home July 10, 2002 10 out of 12 found this review helpful
This is a great, well written book that will educate no matter what your level of building expertise. James Mitchell has some great ideas on building that more people should be aware of. I plan on visiting his school in British Columbia and I will be building a post and beam style some day. Probably a plan referenced in this book.
An excellent book on post and beam log construction November 23, 1998 108 out of 111 found this review helpful
This book may well be the "bible" of post and beam log construction. Covers in excellent detail basic to advanced post and beam design and construction. From house design, foundations, floors, walls, doors and windows, and an extensive chapter on roof design and construction. Explains log hewing with a broad axe and the use of other log shaping tools. Covers log joinery in detail. Includes hundreds of illustrations, a portfolio of color pictures of post and beam joinery, 6 appendixes, Glossary, and Bibliography.
