Perfect reading for people who seriously want to build a log cabin--as well as for those who are still dreaming--this book covers, in words, photos, diagrams, and blueprints, the entire process, from buying the land to moving in. Here is the ultimate resource for finally turning your dream into reality. With photos, blueprints, and diagrams, Fears thoroughly covers the process of constructing the cabin you've always wanted. From buying land, construction materials, deciding on lighting, the water system, and on-site constructions--such as shooting ranges, an outhouse, or an outside fire ring--this is a book filled with nuggets of wisdom from a specialist in the field: J. Wayne Fears is a wildlife biologist by training who has organized big-game hunting camps, guided canoe trips, and run commercial getaway operations. He built his own log cabin in the early 1990s and has been enjoying it ever since. Now you can build and enjoy the cabin you've always dreamed of, too.
