I really enjoy books like this, the living spaces depicted are so personal. There were at least a couple of other books along this line published at about the same time (unconventional living in the '70s); Rolling Homes: Handmade Houses on Wheels, Handmade Houses: A Guide to the Woodbutcher's Art, and Woodstock Handmade Houses. Undoubtedly, there are others...

About midway through there is a picture of a bedroom on a houseboat with a couple of sock monkeys tucked in among a nest of the other dolls atop a chest of drawers. And I think that says about all you need to know. Oh yeah, very 70's.

Great interior photos of 70's era houseboats.
