Dear Oasis Design Retailers:
We are excited to announce the publication of our latest ecological design 
book, Water Storage: Tanks, Cisterns, Aquifers and Ponds for Domestic 
Supply, Fire and Emergency Use.

Water Storage is a do-it-yourself guide to designing, building, and 
maintaining water tanks, cisterns and ponds, and sustainably managing 
groundwater storage. It contains everything you need to know to design and 
build water storage systems, including comprehensive instructions for 
making several styles of ferrocement water tanks. It appears to be the 
world's first general yet detailed book on water storage.

Storage that's low cost, low maintenance, high reliability, and high 
quality...the keys are right here. If you run a water system, for a weekend 
shack or a whole community, you need this book!
-Doug Pratt, Real Goods Technical Editor

On the average water system, this book will pay for itself a hundred times 
over in errors avoided and maintenance savings. Not another stuffy 
engineering manual-a very good book that anyone can read. It is especially 
suited for operators of small water systems.
-Zane Satterfield, P.E., National Drinking Water Clearinghouse

Practical design solutions, comprehensive illustrations, and plenty of 
photos-a thorough treatment of a topic that's vital to our survival.
-Claire Anderson, Home Power Magazine, Mother Earth News

A comprehensive guide to water systems that explores every facet of 
designing and using water resources wisely, efficiently, and in concert 
with nature. If you need water, you need this book.
-Richard Freudenberger, Executive Editor, Back Home Magazine
