Reader Reviews
This review is from: Popular Mechanics 500 Simple Home Repair Solutions (Hardcover)
I bought this book for my husband to help him do some home repairs around our house built in 1860. The book is filled with great tips, step by step instructions and pictures of the projects along the way.
