This book is a friendly guide to the art of building with the earth/clay/straw mixture known as "cob".

Designed in a funky 1970s style, it takes the reader by the hand and gently shows them how to sculpt a home with cob. The author discusses the design and siting of buildings, how to take advantage of sunshine, and how to shelter from rain and wind.

The publisher of the book, Groundworks, also offers cob building workshops.
