A guide from the premier treehouse designer: “Stunning photos of fanciful houses . . . To browse through Nelson’s book is to fantasize about life in midair.” —The Washington Post Book World

The host of Animal Planet’s Treehouse Masters and the world’s best-known treehouse designer and builder, Pete Nelsonwants to put you in a tree. His motto: “Get ’er done, so you can BE in a TREE.” With this book he provides a comprehensive source of inspiration and practical information about treehouse design and construction, and shares the basics of treehouse construction with his own recent projects as case studies.

Using photographs taken especially for this project along with diagrams, he covers the selection and care of trees, and explains the fundamentals of building treehouse platforms. To ignite the imagination, Nelson presents twenty-seven treehouses in the United States, Europe, and Africa. It’s an indispensable handbook for anyone who aspires to have a treehouse, from the armchair dreamer to the amateur builder to the professional contractor.
