Yes! Somebody please reprint this book! How wonderful to live in an affordable and cozy, yet expandable, place! My husband checked it out at our library too, and thank the book gods I found it used here. Looking at the state of heart-attack-inducingly expensive/horrendously ugly home architecture these days, we need smart alternatives now more than ever. Leslie Armstrong is our hero!

If you've only dreamed of owning your own home, this is the book for you. I found this book at the library and it was EXACTLY what I was looking for. My wife and I want to build a house that won't put us in debt for the next 30 years. A house that has room for all our kids now, but won't be too much house when they're gone. No need to hire an architect, the blue prints, material list, and contruction plans are complete. This is a book for the masses. Somebody bring this book back into print.

Do any publishers ever read these reviews????? I also got this book at the library and it is priceless for addressing the subject of small homes for people who are not wealthy!! Do any of you know any? Well, I do. This book should be read by every person training to be an architect. Then go and build some small houses of your own imagination. That we can afford. Maybe I can have a home of my own before I die. After I die, it will be a little more difficult to come up with the down payment! Cheers!
