Practical and pretty thorough Jul 12, 2007
By Jonathan Day
Although no book is perfect, and a book as slim as this is definitely going to lack valuable information, this is nonetheless a superb guide to thatching. It covers the basic history, the practical considerations involved, the architectural aspects and the actual process of thatching a structure. You won't win awards or get certified as a thatcher by reading this book alone and trying out the ideas, but it is quite sufficient to understand what is done and why, and enough for someone already familiar with DIY from raw materials to attempt a small-scale thatching project. For such a small book, the quality and quantity of information is excellent.
A guide to a dying art form Sep 05, 2005
By Midwest Book Review
Thatching is an old roofing art with roots in England which is a dying art as many places outlaw its use due to fire hazards, so it's good to see Nicholas Hall's Thatching: A Handbook promoting the advantages and art of thatch. From thatching tools and techniques to fixing thatch and different thatching methods, Nicholas Hall's is a guide to a dying art form.
