One of my favorites is Howard Zinn's "Peoples History of the United States". It is said that history is written by the winners. This is the rest of the story.
So this thread has been quiet for a while, but I just found it - much to my demise :shock: - I now have an exponentially mushroomed reading list!
I posted this in the member's forum, but thought I'd also copy/paste it here since it seemed to fit well in this virtual library.
I just picked up this awesome book called Deep Survival: Who Lives, Who Dies, and Why by Laurence Gonzales. It focuses on how people react in extreme / disaster / survival situations, but the information is useful for any stressful or intense circumstance. It really digs into how the brain works, the psychology of survival, the reasons even intelligent people and "experts" some times make stupid decisions that lead to grave consequences, the characteristics common to those who survive extreme scenarios, etc.
It is actually teaching me a ton; giving me new ideas on how to think about safety in any situation - whether I'm building or camping or 4 wheeling or whatever. I highly recommend it ??? especially if you like to pursue risky recreation (skiing, snowboarding, mountain biking, Log Home building anything). I can also see how it would be invaluable information for any self-reliant individual.
I just got "Dare to Prepare" by Stan and Holly Deyo. It has a wealth of information for a great many aspects of our lives. I've been referring to it almost daily because of the knowledge it imparts.

Since most of us are trying to live as cheaply as possible while building(and beyond)... why not get the best deals on your books? If the library doesn't have it or can't/won't get it, try this site for comparisons on new and used booksellers:

Another great book is 'Pocket Ref' by Thomas J. Glover. This book is full of facts, formulas, charts, tables, etc. on just about anything you can imagine. I actually take it with me while travelling some times, its small enough to carry around, and I don't get tired of reading it very quickly. :D
Glover has authored and co-authored several other reference books that look interesting as well.
Here's a good reference:
Haggai 1:8 (New International Version) - Go up into the mountains and bring down timber and build the house, so that I may take pleasure in it and be honored," says the LORD
This is a dangerous thread for me because I'm completely addicted to books. Here are some good ones:
Cabins: A Guide to Building Your Own Nature Retreat by David and Jeanie Stiles.
It made cabin building seem very accessible to me (I have no construction experience at all). They briefly cover a wide variety of topics, including different styles of cabin-building, simple cabin designs, building own log furniture, and???my favorite???building your own windows. And more. Not in-depth, but a great place for ideas.
The Cabin by David Mulfinger and Susan E. Davis.
