5No Grey Area Here  Feb 09, 2007 By Nate Downey
Luwig provides page after page of valuable information. Anyone wanting to reuse greywater needs to buy this book. Ludwig's branched drain systems is simple, affordable, and highly effective at using greywater in the landscape, but you can make many mistakes if you don't heed the master's advice. I have installed several systems based on Ludwig's work, and I shutter to think what would have happened if I had not read his books! In addition, his writing style makes for an enjoyable reading experience even though some of the material is, by necessity, technical.

5The Cat's Pajamas  Nov 09, 2006 By Tad Montgomery
Walk, no - run to your nearest locally-owned bookstore and order this little puppy. Art & co. are North America's foremost experts on greywater use, and they've been writing this book for 15 years. There are lots of hard-earned lessons embedded in these pages. The one thing I wish there were more of is practical advice for dealing with codes & officials in heavily regulated (e.g. suburban) environments.

4Comprehensive, a little overwhelming  Jan 14, 2008 By Dr. Who "House Builder"
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.

5I can't wait to create my own Oasis!  Oct 24, 2007 By Mia
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.
