Wonderful, very thorough
As someone who has had a little rudimentary drywall experience I found this book to be an excellent and thorough treatment of what is possible and how to do it. The illustrations are great, including photographs, structural drawings and drawings of workers in action. These drawings are especially well done and show you how to hold and use tools most efficiently in step-by-step procedures. As ...

Great Book!
This book, to me, is one of the best books I have ever read. The plot is simple, destroy the bugs! And there is also emotion showed for the characters and then end of the book makes you think. I had never seen an alien movie, before I read this book, but I had played an alien game on my computer. After I got done reading this book, I went out and rented some alien movies. The way S.D.

Clear and Easy to Understand
I am not a carpenter nor in the building industry. I have built decks, but a building (shed) was beyond my ability. This book made it easy and I was able to understand all of the construction concepts presented. A very good resource for the money.

Must have for beginners
You can learn how to frame an entire house with this book. The basics are all in there. Of course you'll be lacking some serious, somewhat required, experience if you just read this book and try to build a 3 bdrm, 2 story house. But it really helped clear things up for me. I'm using many of the techniques addressed in this book for my tree house. I'm also using the techniques to build a ...

A superb, well-illustrated, well-written book
This book isn't just about barns and shed; it's about proper building and framing practices for any type building. Sure, you can use what you learn here to build barns and shed-- and there are very complete plans for some lovely projects in the back of the book-- but you could just as easily use this book as a guide to building an addition on your house, or for framing a roof. The illustrations ...

A Puritan Defense of God's Love & Grace
It should be obvious to any objective student of the Word that the Calvinist doctrine commonly known as Limited Atonement did not come about through an inductive exegesis of the Scriptures, but instead through a rigid system of deductive logic imposed upon it. Although I have read and reviewed other books on this vitally important subject, I appreciated the fact that Puritan John Goodwin treats ...

Excellent
When I became interested in building "Mission Style" furniture I purchased this book. The designs are wonderfully illustrated and easily followed. I particularly appreciated the comments provided by the author as to the skill level required to complete a specific project.
