3.0 out of 5 stars Be careful - this book does not include the plans!, July 26, 1999
By A Customer
While this book would be useful to someone looking to build, but not yet sure what design they want, it does not include actual plans (you must purchse them seperately). It also does not include plans for cupolas as the write-up seems to indicate. These are only included as part of entire barns.

5.0 out of 5 stars A valuable tool for the prospective barn builder., April 21, 1999
By A Customer
It's about time someone put together a comprehensive source book devoted to barns. With over ninety designs, and sources for all the hard-to-find barn hardware and accessories, "Barns and Backbuildings" provides a valuable planning tool for anyone thinking about building a barn. Well-organized and easy to read, it's the best resource book on barns, large and small, that I've come across.
