The author of the book, Kaile Warren, Jr., is also the owner of the Rent-A-Husband handyman business.As such, he has real life experience concerning what the target audience for this book wants and needs to know.It is a handy basic primer covering a myriad of topics on simple household repair problems, storage solutions for all areas of the house, and home safety and security tips.All in all it is a really nice book to keep as a handy quick reference.The first section of the book concentrates on basic terminology and provides information on which tool is right for a particular job.Everything from power tools to nails gets a quick explanation.Also included in this section is advice on how to tackle common household repairs to faucets, toilets, electrical outlets, faulty lamps and switches, and tips on installing floor tile and sheet viny.One other thoughtful addition is the discussion of when to decide not to take on a repair job and instead call in an expert.
The section on storage solutions for all areas of the house is well done.It includes buying tips for a variety of modular and other units.There are even instructions for the adventurous who want to build some units for themselves.
Part three of the book discusses and illustrates several facets of home security and home safety considerations.For those living alone, this section of the book alone may well be enough justification for buying it.
If you fall within the specific target audience (the title will give you a clue as to whether you do or don't), this is a very nice book to have.
