Great pamphlet, good drawings and photos, plus some really nice furniture designs. You can scout around on this website for other vintage publications.

1. Subject: I never buy books! But I purchased yours and loved it.
I always use the library and just return them since I get so many, but yours I had to buy.
Best $30 I spent.
I am about to take a walkabout for about 3 months. I am in Seattle Washington and will head south along the coast till I get warm and then head east probably into Arizona.
I wanted to write off the trip and save on expenses so I wanted to take my truck. I had purchased your book for another project but got inspired and decided to go in style.
Two inches of insulation, pine tongue and groove, wood blinds, interior propane heater, alarmed and interior locking. And from the outside day or night you would never guess.…
2. My “Truck Suite” was inspired from your book. I am on my walkabout trip. I am posting videos on YouTube and Facebook.
Here is a article being placed in our local newspaper. If this article may be useful for your newsletter you are welcome to use it and the photos.
Thanks for the inspiration!

Hi,
My name is Vanessa Hill and I am emailing you on behalf of Reduce Reuse Recycle. My team and I have been working on a article all about green living and yurts. We used your page (https://www.shelterpub.com/_mongolian/MCH-links.html) quite often as a resource so we wanted to send a formal thank you note!
Last week one of our interns (Sarah) asked us to pass on another article to you that she found useful during our research on yurts. https://www.movoto.com/buyers-tips/yurts
If it’s not too much trouble would you mind adding the link to your site, I want to show Sarah her hard work has paid off and show her I have seen a change in her for the better and she can save the world one carbon footprint at a time!…Thanks again,
Vanessa Hill
