| Summary | "Sunset's Cabin Plan Book" by Ralph P. Dillon, Clemens Friedell, and Norman Gordon is a guidebook on cabin design and construction, written in the early 20th century. This comprehensive resource is focused on helping readers plan and build their ideal vacation home, whether by a mountain or near a beach, offering various layouts suited to outdoor living. The book aims to inspire both aspiring builders and those in the "talking stage" of their cabin dreams, providing practical advice on construction materials and techniques. The opening of the book sets the stage by emphasizing the desire for vacation homes among Westerners, deeply rooted in a connection to nature and the outdoors. It outlines the various considerations for selecting a cabin site, including proximity to resources, as well as highlights the importance of thoughtful planning. Readers are introduced to essential topics such as water supply, sanitation, and suitable building materials, all while keeping the book’s primary aim of offering easily adaptable cabin plans and practical guidance for creating a personal retreat in the wilderness.
