Mikveh Yisrael - Practical Guidelines for Construction of a Mikveh Taharah at Home, Including Diagrams. California, 1924
Mikveh Yisrael by Professor Rabbi David Miller. California, 1924. Yiddish.
The book contains practical guidelines suitable for everyone as to how to build a do-it-yourself mikveh in one's home, even inside one of the closets! He deals with a maximally-kosher mikveh (even for women's immersion). The book was written, as mentioned, about a hundred years ago, not requiring technological innovations of any kind, just using items easily obtained everywhere (several boards and several pipes). It is meant as a solution for those who live distant from Jewish communities.
The book includes an approbation from 'The elder of the generation, the gaon Rabbi Moshe Zvulun Margaliot, who writes: "As this precious person invented ... a good and easy way that anyone can make a mikveh in his home ... without any impediment.
32 pp, 23 cm. (Accompanied by 7 diagrams.)
