"Begins with...pond construction basics and continues with preformed...lined, concrete, raised and semi-raised, and earth ponds; waterfall and stream construction; pond edgings; pumps and filtration; and other water features. Color photographs and drawings throughout."- Booklist. "Photos, drawings, cut-away views and insider tips enhance the explanatory text."- Publishers Weekly.
This is an excellent book for ideas on various types of ponds: preformed; lined; concrete; raised and semi-raised; etc. with pretty good details on constructing most styles.The only reason I didn't give it a better rating, is because in trying to cover so many styles in limited space (144 pages total), it naturally could not offer the level of detail I was looking for when building my lined pond. That said it was an excellent book, with great ideas and I strongly recommend it. BTW, I completed my pond (2,500 gallons!) and it looks great!
