Sounds like you got some good resources. If you really enjoy the process I would highly recommend the book "Mud Ball" by Atulya Bingham. It isn't a guide book, but is written as a kind of memoir and is a great read for anyone interested in natural building.

Hello Paul,   Although not a book, I've always enjoyed reading Kelly Harts stuff. Green Home Building
