'Evocative, endearing and very funny, Cabin perfectly captures the joy and jeopardy of building by hand. I could see the sparks, smell the woodsmoke and taste that ice-cold beer.'
Callum Robinson, author of Ingrained: The Making of a Craftsman
"What a fun and funny blast of fresh air. Very enjoyable indeed!"
Tristan Gooley, best-selling author and founder of The Natural Navigator School
'A modern Walden for our times, Patrick Hutchison's funny and enchanting debut [ ] is about making something real in a digital existence, about learning the craft of repair in a world where so much is disposable, and about seeking out that which we so often avoid: silence, discomfort, effort and solitude.'
Sarah Langford, author of Rooted: How Regenerative Farming Can Change the World
Cabin details the case for a universal wilderness, where the many great joys, freedoms, and sense of independence, is available to anyone willing to give it a go. This is a brilliant debut that hammers its wonky wooden planks somewhere between the works of Henry David Thoreau and Bill Bryson.'
Will Millard, author of The Old Man and the Sand Eel and co-author of The Way of the Hermit
Hutchisons enthusiasm is infectious, and his love of the natural world deeply moving. Beautifully written, Hutchison's account of self-discovery through DIY is inspiring.
Colin Heber-Percy, author of Lost in the Forest: Notes on Not Belonging from the English Countryside
'A Walden for the modern age'
Brett McKay, author of The Art of Manliness
'Cabin is Hutchisons charming, funny account of his journey rehabilitating the dilapidated hovel on Wits End Place [ ] In this equally motivating and relatable book, that earnest commitment to learning and the thrill that accompanies even the tiniest achievement shows on nearly every page.'
Washington Post
'Henry David Thoreau meets Home Improvement in Hutchisons charming debut.'
