A backwoods memoir for anyone who has ever dreamed of escaping to the wild
‘Funny and thoughtful … You feel his desire to be back in the woods, working with his hands. Don’t we all?’ – New York Times
Working unhappily as a marketing copywriter in the Pacific Northwest, Patrick Hutchison came across an advert for a tiny cabin nestled deep in the forest, in a place called Wit’s End. Scraping together his last few dollars, Hutchison bought the cabin and, despite having barely any carpentry skills, set about making it his own personal bolthole.
Cabin is his beautifully written account of restoring a tiny rural property with almost no woodworking experience, aided only by the kindness of friends, a collection of vicious-looking power tools and countless cases of beer.
A modern-day Walden for those who pine for the honest pleasures of working with your hands, even if that means biting off more than you can chew, Cabin is for all those who long for a simpler way of life, even if it’s only on the weekends.

'Funny and thoughtful…Hutchison’s dread at returning to Seattle after weekends at the cabin is the same Sunday blues many feel, amplified by the proximity of what he increasingly becomes convinced is a better way to live. You feel his desire to be back in the woods, working with his hands. Don’t we all?' ―New York Times
'Cabin is Hutchison’s charming, funny account of his journey rehabilitating the dilapidated hovel on Wit’s End Place…In this equally motivating and relatable book, that earnest commitment to learning and the thrill that accompanies even the tiniest achievement shows on nearly every page.' ―Washington Post
'A Walden for the modern age' – Brett McKay, author of The Art of Manliness
'Henry David Thoreau meets Home Improvement in Hutchison’s charming debut.' – Publishers Weekly
