Customer Reviews of Small Barn Plans for Owner-Builders
Review Summary: Small Barns Book
Review: It was a good book to prepare for a small barn building project.
Customer Rating:
Review Summary: Not what was expected
Review: Only basic info on planning a project and included plans are just a teaser to get you to purchase complete plans. There are much better general barn/shed books.
Customer Rating:
Review Summary: Small Barn Plans
Review: It's marginally useful with hand drawn, black & white diagrams. You do get a sense of what building a horse barn or shed is all about. There are other reference books out there that deal with the subject in a more polished way though.

Review Summary: not necessarily what the cover says...
Review: The cover bills it as 'complete' plans for 12 different barns- actually, to get complete plans that would be needed to get building permit do construction or buy materials, you have to order a set form the authors website. The book has nice practical ideas about working with subcontactors, and the designs and sources are quite useful.
