Over a century ago; when he first wrote this little guide; William Sydney Wicks (1854ndash;1919) whimsically observed that while early man lived in nature out of necessity; modern man has taken to the woods by choice. Wicks was a highly successful architect whose imprint can still be seen throughout Buffalo; New York; in dozens of churches; hotels; libraries; houses; and other structures. For several years; he was also Buffalos park commissioner. Wicks lovely little how-to manualmdash;complete with simple diagrams and step-by-step detailsmdash;is the ideal dream book for people who think of someday building their own rustic cottage. Its a charming repository of practical shelters and make-it-yourself log furnishings that will inspire every home craftsman and everyone who yearns to get back to nature. Building instructions are accompanied by clear; accurate line drawings of simple log structures; lean-tos; fancy Adirondack cabins; fireplaces; stairways; furniture; beamed ceilings; and much more. A perfect guide for anyone who loves the outdoors; the Little Book of Log Cabins will provide a feast for browsing and for practical projects.
