Book Description
Create an Oasis describes how to quickly and easily choose, build, and use a simple greywater system. Some can be completed in an afternoon for under $30. It also provides complete instructions for more complex installations, how to deal with freezing, flooding, drought, failing septics, low perk soil, non-industrialized world conditions, coordinating a team of professionals to get optimum results on high-end projects, and "radical plumbing" that uses 90% less resources.

 Water catchment May 2, 2008
I liked this book. It is short, fast reading and worth the time. I want to start my own catchment system because of this book. I have a need for understanding with some other environmental issues that were not addressed in the book, but overall, I am excited about the possible options for recycling water regardless of it's state (rain, grey, black) on my homesite. This book addresses my needs.
Comprehensive, a little overwhelming January 14, 2008

I found this book more for someone looking to convert their existing house and plumbing to run on a grewater system, as opposed to for someone looking to build a house around/incorporating a greywater system (which is my situation).
Still, an extremely specific and informative book for those who are interested in knowing every nuance of making a greywater system out of any situation.
Good book, for dry locations December 27, 2007

A very detailed book, but specificly aimed at very dry area's.
There is info of use to wetter areas, but maybe not enough to justify buying the book.
 Good info -- when you can find it October 28, 2007

I was able to find the information I needed to plan for a greywater system for our new house. But finding that information was a challenge. The book could use a consistent look and be better organized. The content is good; the presentation is lacking.
 I can't wait to create my own Oasis! October 24, 2007

I've read two of Art's books, Water Storage and The New Create an Oasis With greywater. They were both fantastically educational and surprisingly easy to understand even for a woman like me who's never touched a tool.
