I knew almost nothing about Bill Moss or his truly innovative tent and fabric designs before this book. It is more about his work than his life, which is fine. I suspect Moss, like many geniuses, was very hard to live with and getting too much detail about his life might take away from his work. Reading this will truly change how you perceive tents, design, and living structures. ( )
