I'm re-reading "House' (after twenty years) because I love Tracy Kidder and I remembered this as an excellent, true story. I found the seemingly simple story of a group of carpenters building a house from the ground up, with insight into their lives and the thoughts of the owners and designer, to be both soothing and compelling. I recommend this and all of his other books. (Try 'Mountains Beyond Mountains', the story of Dr Paul Farmer, as your next Kidder book.)

How to survive building a house emotionally
This a book about the experience of building a house - not how to build one. It will forwarn the homeowner and perhaps prevent confrontations

the book was, i guess, in the shape described. no jacket. a tiny notch in the cover. but fine. the book was interesting.
