Book Description“… Larry Haun is as much a historian and philosopher as he is a 60-year veteran carpenter.Larry’s memoir would be equally at home on the bookshelves of home building and architectureenthusiasts as anyone on a spiritual journey.” - Brian Pontolilo, Editor, Fine HomebuildingMagazine The unforgettable memoir of a legendary builder. You don’t have to be a carpenter toappreciate this fascinating book that Publishers Weekly calls, “a first person timeline of 20thcentury American residential architecture… combining …two literary styles: the memoir and thehow-to book.” A moving story of that place we call home. An early advocate for building leanand green and an avid blogger, Larry Haun tells his unique story in terms of twelve homes – builtover the last 100 years. These are homes he knows intimately, drawing the reader in with detaileddescriptions and thoughtful observations. “Just like any good carpenter, Haun brings his ownartistic flourishes to the job of storytelling…. But where Haun’s true personality comes across iswhen he describes the construction process for the many houses he has lived in and built―fromhis parent’s 1,000-sq. ft. wood-frame house and the adobe and cob structures of the Southwest tothe mid-century pre-fabricated and tract houses, and the more recent Habitat for Humanity homeshe has donated his time to help erect.” Publishers Weekly, 6/13/2011 A delight to read.
