5.0 out of 5 stars Great for new homeowners, June 9, 2000
By Craig Anderson (Mountain View, California) - See all my reviews
This book is great. It talks about tools and techniques for all kinds of home repairs. It recommends what tools everyone needs for basic repairs, and which tools are useful but aren't necessary. If you are a first-time homeowner like I am, and you've never had to deal with this subject before, this is your book.
