excellent reference
I had been reading several articles on rocket mass heaters, how to build them, materials to use, problems to overcome, but could not find some specifics that I was worried about. This book helped tremendously with chimney heights and warming tube calculations and things to avoid. VERY helpful.

Good read. Lots of help.
The book may have contained some generic content, but for the absolute beginner, it was a godsend. There were "avoids" in there that I hadn't thought about and I've only read the first three sections.

The big zero
To much trivial information. Hardly any info and drawings and illustrations for the DIY er. If I could send it back I would. It was advertised as all I need to know about rocket stoves...not hardly..
