I have found Ron Barlow's "The Vanishing American
Outhouse" to be one of the best books around for privy
research. Besides great anecdotes and tons of pictures
of various privies, Barlow examines different
architectural styles, regional variations,
construction methods, and even includes a reprint of
an old USDA Privy constuction pamphlet.
Here's the full citation:
