Mat's Review: 

David Easton has been designing and building with rammed earth since the late 1970s, when he stumbled upon rammed earth construction methods while searching for a way to build himself a low-cost, and energy/materials efficient home. Since then, his company, Rammed Earth Works, has become one of the major builders of rammed earth structures in North America. This beautiful book takes you through all the steps for building a rammed earth home, from design and planning, through soil evaluation, on to construction details and techniques synthesized from almost thirty years of building with rammed earth. Inspiring and instructive color photos fill this newly revised and updated edition.
