This book is great. Jam packed with tree house ideas, it goes step by step through the process starting with how to pick a good tree. Definitely one to pick back up in the future when it's treehouse building time!

Great book with lots of pictures of tree houses. Wish I were talented enough to construct one.

Not a bad guy, but it's written by lawyers for people who like to buy stuff and be told what to do. Had useful information. Worked as a nice companion to David & Jeanie Stiles's 'Treehouses & Playhouses You Can Build.'
