REVIEW
'. . . These retreats embody that very American ideal of freedom and individual expression . . . Not just a how come' but a how-to, Drinkard's narrative explores both the reasons for escape and the practical side of the retreat, explaining materials, permits, location, and purpose. Jon Golden's photographs provide perspective amid the open spaces of the home, the land, and the imagination.' - Washington Post Book World
