Field Guide To Tools: How To Identify And Use Virtually Every Tool At The Hardware Store (Field Guide)
reviewed on + 17 more book reviews


A very handy guide. However, the distinctly Anglophilic terminology came as a shock. While I enjoy knowing that "secateurs" is another term for pruning shears, I am not sure that asking for them by that name at my local hardware store will result in me getting what I need. Just the same, the photo section is very nice, though I would have liked more detail about the different varieties of fasteners.
