Reviews
If you've ever built a backyard snow fort, said The Salt Lake Tribune, here's your chance to improve your game. Norbert Yankielun is a research engineer with the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, and his 'well-written' how-to shares the pile of knowledge he's accumulated in 15 years of building igloos, drift caves, quinzes, and other snow shelters., A wonderfully illustrated guide to making snow shelters. How to build with snow, how to work with snow rather than against it, and what not to do. Amazingly informative, succinct and fun. This book is the kind of expert you dream of., [T]his expert's guide, enlivened by Amelia Bauer's witty illustrations, will ensure that you impress the neighbors., Touching on everything from snow science to structural physics...[E]qually suited to the serious explorer and the backyard builder., Feeling stuck in the house this winter? Or are you taking advantage of the colder months for outdoor adventure? In either case, you'll get a kick out of U.S. Army Corps of Engineers researcher Norbert Yankielun's How to Build an Igloo - and Other Snow Shleters., [E]xplains how to 'make' snow blocks and even lists the shovels, axes, and saws you'll need to help shape them., My favorite tip: Start by making a snow angel for an idea of the minimum diameter needed for your igloo.
