Soon you’ll have the chance to win one of these books

I’m happy to announce that Tuttle Publishing has kindly donated two very sweet books to The Year of Mud, and a couple of lucky readers will have the chance to get a copy of their own in the coming two weeks. I’ve got sitting beside me here a copy of The Genius of Japanese Carpentry: Secrets of an Ancient Craft and Just Enough: Lessons in Living Green From Traditional Japan, two excellent book titles. The first explores the incredible craft and history of temple building in Japan, and the second is a portrayal of life in Edo Japan, when Japanese society learned to cope with ecological limits and live in better balance in all aspects of daily life.

Click ahead to find out how you can win a copy of either of these books!

How to Enter the Giveaways

Within the week, I’ll be posting a review of the first of the two books, including instructions on how to enter the giveaway for the book itself. It will be very simple, no catches. All you need to do is come back and make sure you read the review within the week, and enter your name in the drawing at that time. The books will be reviewed separately, so if you miss out on the first opportunity, there will be another chance. Very simple.

Please make sure to subscribe to our newsletter to make sure you don’t miss the first giveaway later this week!Here’s a big thanks to Tuttle for spreading the love.
