EARTH-SHELTERED HOUSES - Rob Roy
An earth-sheltered, earth-roofed home has the least impact upon
the land of all housing styles, leaving almost zero footprint on the
planet and creating a dwelling in harmony with its environment.
But early attempts at constructing underground houses ran into a
host of problems that modern technology and more evolved
experience with the technique have now solved. EARTH-SHELTERED
HOUSES, brings earth-sheltered construction completely up to date
for those who want to build their own underground home at a
moderate cost.
CONSIDERING THE HORSE - Mark Rashid
Mark Rashid shares his gift for using communication, not force, in
working with horses. Rashid uses heart-warming and humorous
stories to share his techniques of teaching horses by understanding
their view of the world. These tales deal with many facets of buying,
owning, and training horses. Stories of Arabs, appaloosas, and paints -
mistrusted and mistreated because of their breed - will give you a new
perspective on these breeds and others. Rashid's accounts of horses
bound for slaughter because they couldn't be trained will inspire you
to give your own problem horse another look. And when Wil, the
ugliest horse you can imagine, turns out to be the best on the ranch,
you will understand why a good horse is never a bad color.
