The Complete Book Of Underground Houses: How To Build A Low Cost Home by Roy, Rob. paperback edition. ISBN: 9780806907284.

"According to Roy, underground or earth-sheltered houses are unexpectedly livable. Judging by his books attractive pictures, thats easy to believe. The house he bases his point-by-point guide on is indeed a showplace. Its homey touches are just that, though, and Roys main concern is creating such a house, from drawing up the plans to surveying the site to the actual building. Roys instruction is insightful and comprehensive....Throughout, he covers construction and installation details that are extremely important for nonprofessionals brave enough to undertake building their own homes."--Booklist. 148 pages, 40 color illus., 130 b/w illus., 8 x 10
