“Away-away from men and towns…” - Shelley
THIS year more and more American families will pile into their cars and take to the hills — or seashore — to seek refuge and blessed escape in their own little —or large—cozy retreat. Sheer luxury, yes, but at prices, we have found, that are well within the reach of most of us.
We have run across many interesting people in the preparation of this book —in fact all the folks we've contacted were somehow relaxed and thoughtful types. This, we discovered, was no coincidence. These people had already tasted the rich, clear wine of freedom and pure air. They had taken time out to live, and in living they had come alive.
The twenty cabins and selection of boathouses, docks and carports in this book were chosen with an eye to variety—variety of size, style, and method of construction. We have tried to give you a comprehensive rundown on what is available and at prices you can afford. Other chapters will deal with choosing a site, pumps and plumbing —and the heating of your cabin. We trust you will find the entire contents of this book enjoyable reading—and hope that you will find the one rustic refuge you've been dreaming about—which can now be studied in terms of reality.
