Books

The Earth Building Association of Australia does not have a bookshop though does offer its own publications for sale. We have compiled a list of publications that may be useful for those wishing to learn about earth building, design, build or owner build in earth. Some of these publications are available from your newsagents, library, online or from a few sources we can suggest.

If anyone has suggested texts to add to list or videos please contact me.
