Log Cabin Classics
by Robbin Obomsawin

the inside cover reads:

" Have you ever wondered how many details could be packed into a log cabin under 1500 square feet? Designed to bring the true spirit of cabin style back to its roots, Log Cabin Classics is inspired by nostalgic, old-world cabins and filled with tips for meeting today's current needs.
Since place - not space - is what true harmony with nature and cabin living is about, Log Cabin Classics includes practical construction advise, straightforward and creative design, advice on using local materials and choosing a site, architectural details and hand-crafted artistry. These principles are then applied to a collection of one-of-a-kind plans you can use as springboards to create your own "log cabin classic."
Log Cabin Classics is perfect for first-time homeowners, empty nesters, the conservative family that values the wealth of nature or the vacation homeowner in need of simplicity.
Move away from the high-tech surge of grand cabin designs of the last decade and come to the natural inspiration and warmth of Log Cabin Classics."

The Rustic Cabin
Design & Architecture
by Ralph Kylloe
Inside cover reads:

"With a focus on architecture and details, Ralph Kylloe introduces creative designs that are reviving the age-old tradition of cabin craftsmanship. Included are newly built log and stone homes steeped in history, not only, of the region where they are built but also if the ancestors and mountain men whose small log cabins protected them from the harsh elements of the mountain frontier and gave them comfort by a cozy fire. Displaying photographic detail of the highest-quality workmanship in stone and log, these homes also boast a blending of fine antiques and contemporary furnishings. Arts & Crafts, Scandinavian, and western legacies in furniture building and interior styling steal the scene in many rooms.
These homes are rich in vision, beauty, and warmth - photographed and framed by Ralph Kylloe's keen eye for quality and richness."

The Not So Log Cabin
by Robin Obomsawin
Inside cover reads:

"Think outside the log Box!
Borrowing from many different construction methods while toning down the use of log resources, the log-element home is coming to the fore. It's a hybrid style incorporating whole log post-and-beam with old-world timberframe methods.
The Not So Log Cabin relies on detailing - such as twig art, log beams, stairs, railings, and support columns - within a conventionally built structure. Mixtures of these elements create a dramatic contrast of rustic logs against a canvas of more delicate materials, including stone and glass.
Filled with tips for new construction and remodels, The Not So Log Cabin is the idea book for the next generation of log lovers interested in a greener home, one that respects and utilizes natural resources to their fullest potential.
Whatever taste, budget, or level of log detail you envision, you are certain to find a style that pleases you, as well as guidelines for getting the most out of your log investment."
