Very informative; not much out there on adobe building technics.3 of 3 people found the following review helpful. The real dealBy WillaIf you are interested in preservation; vernacular architecture; architectural history; or just in understanding the beautiful and functional adobe buildings of northern New Mexico; this book is an absolute must-read. Ive lived in Santa Fe my whole life; and have always loved adobe buildings; but I still learned a lot from it. What its not: a superficial collection of pretty pictures to show you how to make your faux-dobe house look all "Santa Fe Style".Also; if you are thinking of stuccoing your adobe house; put down the trowel and read this first. Please?3 of 3 people found the following review helpful. Interesting; but buy the Cornerstone bookBy SparkAfter a more-than-usually useful description of architectural styles of adobe structures; this book has chapters on restoring walls; roofs; porches and woodwork and doors and windows. Missing is what to do about floors. Chapter 12 (3 pages) is about adaptation and additions including solar energy. Page 117 has a detailed illustration about the difficulties of adding insulation to a flat dirt roof.
