a yaranga? How about a hogan? Can you stay warm in an igloo? Are
there secrets to living, thriving and surviving in specific

frame buildings, and modern solutions, including straw bale designs
and geodesic domes. WOODEN BOOKS are small but packed with
information. "Fascinating" FINANCIAL TIMES. "Beautiful" LONDON
