Not being familiar with many of the arcane housing construction terms that so many books use, it was refreshing to have a this book go into such detail explaining each area of historic construction touched upon to truly educate interested readers. The only downside being that the book is not a casuaul read - rather it is more of a technical manual.

This is a great reference and is very thorough. Useful for the historic owner or professional. It covers everything, and then some. This reads more like a text than a how-to manual. It's not a "DIY" book to preserving historical buildings.
