4.0 out of 5 stars Lots of good construction detail. Not strong on design., 6 April 2009
By Duncan E. Philps-tate "duncan" (England) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Natural Swimming Pools: A Guide to Building (Hardcover)
If you've decided to build a natural swimming pool, then this book has lots of information on construction method and options and is probably going to help you do it yourself or supervise a contractor with enough knowledge to spot any mistakes.

What is doesn't have much detail on is the design process, for which you need the author's first / other book. Unfortunately getting hold of that isn't easy as both are in a niche market and suppliers even within Amazon are few. And might send you the wrong one by mistake as the titles and covers ar so similar. (Happened to me and I'm still looking for the design book)

5.0 out of 5 stars What a wonderful and very useful book!!!, 11 Aug 2010
By Dr. Peter Erling "Bücherwurm" (Niedersachsen) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Natural Swimming Pools: A Guide to Building (Hardcover)
Best book ever about this topic - very detailed and inspiring! Michael Littlewood is a very capable, experienced, well known garden and landscape designer. If you are thinking about building your own Natural Swimming Pool you definitely need to have this book for a better understanding of the state of the art. Plenty of high quality illustrations. We very much enjoyed have read it. Highly recommended.

4.0 out of 5 stars Natural swimming pools, 11 Jun 2010
By Mr. M. F. Noble - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Natural Swimming Pools: A Guide to Building (Hardcover)
I perhaps should have got the first book, in which there are more photographs. The information is okay but I am not sure if it still perhaps is not technically rounded enough - eg what sort of stone can you use to build the pools.

It may have been helpful to follow a couple of projects from design stage through to completion, discussing any pitfalls and problems that occurred along the way.

Still a nice read and a good starting point for a self build.
