Book Reviews of Water Storage: Tanks, Cisterns, Aquifers, and Ponds for Domestic Supply, Fire and Emergency Use--Includes How to Make Ferrocement Water Tanks

Book Review: Storage we need
Summary: 5 Stars

I enjoyed this book, and it had some great ideas. The big expense for all of these is not so much collecting the rain, even in the desert where I live, but storing the rain. The secret to saving water is storage, storage, storage. We are not talking rain barrels here, but as the author points out we need large storage capacity. He has great advice on purchasing tanks, building tanks etc. but even building your own is way out of my price range for now. Still, I really enjoyed the book and can't wait until the day I can build one his ideas.
