This is a delightful book. It begins with a good description of a yurt, (in Mongolia known as a Ger)
then expands to types of yurt.
It includes how they are lived in by a Mongolian family, complete with social elements.
About half of the book details how to construct a yurt. Instructions are flexible enough so that the reader understands his/her options. Detailed patterns and measurements are given for several sizes of yurt. I have no doubt that any reasonably handy reader could construct a yurt after reading and understanding this book.
