Low Impact "hobbit house"
"synopsis" may belong to another edition of this title.
This book is a description of the fascinating process that would lead through the design of the structure, the detailing, the construction and the fitting out. It is not a technical treatise in any sense, though the basic sketches could be used to build a similar structure. There are many good photos to back up the text, and they give a better sense of scale than the line illustrations. The book is well written with a good deal of wit and logical explanation, by a permie who is obviously in tune with living sustainably and willing to eschew much of the baggage we take for granted, but is still able to live simply and luxuriously. Highly recommended. --Michael Guerra Permaculture Magazine 27
A staggering amount of advice from an author who clearly knows his stuff --Wave Magazine
An excellent read, providing a moving and witty account of the building process --Building For A Future
Tony Wrench has spent many years designing and implementing both renewable energy and building projects. He lives with his mate Jane Faith in the community at Brithdir Mawr, in Pembrokeshire, Wales. Their principles are sustainability, simplicity and spirit. Tony lives luxuriously, well below the poverty line, working on things permacultural and wooden. He makes his living from wood turning, singing and playing musical instruments (some homemade) with the local circle dance and Ceilidh band, Rasalila.
