Fair and Honest said Unimpressed With Content. The majority of the Book was a Glossy Presentation of Rammed Earth Only, best suited for a third world appetite for general knowledge.

Since the book is intended for an english speaking audience, I would say it missed the mark on contributing anything needed or useful to anyone strongly considering a Viable Ramme
