### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Valuable + comprehensive restoration manual
*by J***C on January 24, 2021*

This book is not for sissies! This is an extremely comprehensive reference for restoring a historic home from foundation to finish.If you want something to teach you what goes into restoring a historic home from top to bottom, that is honest about all the pitfalls, expenses, and joys of fixing up a classic home, this is for you.If you’re looking for a pretty coffee table book that makes breathing life into 100+ year-old home look like a walk in the park, keep shopping!Owning this book will save you thousands of dollars of mistakes that you could make by not understanding everything that needs to go into a comprehensive renovation. It does not sugarcoat the difficulties in managing a large project and will help you decide which things you should do yourself and which things you should really leave to the experts.The author has shared everything from the big picture to the most mundane details involved in a classic restoration, and is very candid about things that went right, and also some things that could’ve gone a lot better. Ultimately, you can really see that his goal is to save other homeowners money and time by sharing his own experience in words and in photos.I have restored more than one old house and this is one of the best reference books I have ever had.I am about to embark on a restoration of an 1885 Queen Anne Victorian and I am looking forward to going into the project with even more knowledge than I already have about the process from start to finish.Highly, highly recommended.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A Great Find
*by F***N on August 7, 2024*

This is a must have book for everyone interested in historic houses and their loving and careful restoration. Profusely illustrated.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great book with useful tips
*by B***Y on September 13, 2022*

This book won't exactly teach you step by step to do to repair on a historic home. What it does provide are alot of tips and foundational knowledge about how historic homes were built, what to look for when planning rehabilitation, best practices, and good examples of historic rehabilitations. I read this book in it's entirety and wish I had read something like this prior to some of my own work. Examples like how gypsum being different then lime based plasters. I do wish a bit more information was available on slate roofing and resolving structural support issues that might effect the historical appearance of a space (ex I have 20+ ft span ceilings and the only thing I can think of is running steel or wood support beams jacked up across the ceiling of my kitchen). Overall I enjoyed the book and is worth a read.
