From Library Journal
Building a house is like assembling a vast puzzle in which everything must be completed in a specific order and meet specific standards. Binsacca, a former editor of Builder and The Practical Homeowner, explains the often-confusing construction process so that even those who are "un-handy" will understand how builders work and be able to make informed decisions when building their homes. He does an excellent job of describing how a house is built, from initial site preparation to final inspection. He surveys the different materials and techniques and carefully explains which features can be changed by builders and which must be completed a particular way. Photos and drawings explain specifics, and highlighted boxes define terms and give tips throughout. Helpful for anyone who is building a house, this book is recommended for public libraries.AJonathan N. Hershey, Akron-Summit Cty. P.L., Akron, OH
