About this product

Product Information

Treehouses lift the spirits. They inspire dreams. They represent freedom: from adults or adulthood, from duties and responsibilities, from an earthbound perspective. If we can't fly with the birds, at least we can nest with them. With lively writing and beautiful photographs, Treehouses paints a fascinating portrait of this ingenious branch of architecture. It provides a brief history of treehouses, from Caligula through the Medici to Queen Victoria. It shows how to design and build a treehouse, from picking the right tree to shingling the roof. And it tells the stories of dozens of treehouses and the people who built them, from simple platforms nailed together by kids to arboreal palaces constructed and lived in by grown-ups. The centerpiece of the book is a photo essay showing Pete Nelson building a spectacular octagonal treehouse thirty feet up an old-growth fir on Saltspring Island in British Columbia. With two hundred square feet of floor space, cedar paneling, and leaded French doors, the Saltspring treehouse is one of the finest specimens of the treehouse builder's art. Anyone who has ever built a treehouse, or dreamed of it, or read Swiss Family Robinson, will find Treehouses irresistible.

  • Great inspiration for adventurous tree lovers.

    This is a terrific book if you are looking for inspiration and a little "how-to" on building a livable treehouse. It can also give you inspiration for some ideas if you just want a unique treehouse for junior. I purchased the book as gift for my daughter and son-in-law who live in the Seattle area and have some trees that would be perfect for a GREAT treehouse. But the best part is this.... My son-in-law's father has the same name as the author and I have the same name as the editor, so we were able to give the kids an "autographed" copy of a book written by their "dads"!

  • Not just another treehouse book...

    Actually this was one of my favorite books that Pete wrote.

  • treehouses

    I bought the book a while back because I wanted to see how tree houses are made, so we could have an idea on how to built one. This book was a great bargain, because not only it was inexpensive it was in excellent condition.
