4.0 out of 5 stars Specifying Interiors, March 10, 2008
This review is from: Specifying Interiors: A Guide to Construction and FF&E for Residential and Commercial Interiors Projects (Hardcover)

Pretty Good information. However, the book would have been much better if the photos they used were more current.
