Title: Try Before You Buy
Review: If you are interested in building an earth-shelter/underground home look elsewhere. This is not the book for you. I found nothing really compelling in this book and regret buying it. If you live in an area with hot summers, cold winters and no fire ants then I suggest buying "The Complete Book of Underground Houses" by, no kidding, Rob Roy. Rob claims that you can build the structure of a 40'x40' house for around 10,000 dollars. I learned from Rob that my area is probably not prime for an underground house because with the blazingly hot summers and very mild winters I won't be able to store up enough "capacitance" in the soil to give me extra "cooleth" in the summer, the time I really need it. Still, Rob Roy's book was very informative and I'm glad I bought it.
