This is a good book to use in planning what type of roof or siding that would
suit your project. Then buy a book how to work that particular roof or
siding.

This review is from: Black & Decker The Complete Guide to Roofing Siding & Trim: Updated 2nd Edition, Protect & Beautify the Exterior of Your Home (Black & Decker Complete Guide) (Paperback)
Bought this book to help my wife and I to teach us how to remove old roof and install new roof. So far from what I have read, this is a great book! Lots of pictures and detailed instructions.

However,even though this book covers metal roofing it lacks in my opinion the details needed by a novice as myself to do the job myself. So the wife and I decided to go with asphalt shingles.

Helpful. Helps clue you in if you have never done roofing or siding work before. Won't magically turn you into a tradesperson (nothing can without on-the-job experience), but will clue you in on how stuff is done. I imagine that even people in the trade might benefit from it, if only to see variations on the way that their own company does things.
