From the Introduction:
“Whenever I started a project, I wanted to know how hard it would be for a novice like me, what tools I would need, how much I had to buy from the hardware store, how long it would take and, finally, how much it would be to just hire someone else to do it. So… I'm passing this along to you…

It's everything I wish I'd had when I started… You don't have to read this book from cover to cover. Use it as your road map.
