| 11. |  | Wiring a House (For Pros by Pros) from Taunton Price: $16.47 Customer Review: This is a decent book but shouldn't be your only reference. This is probably the third "how to" book I have on wiring. Thinking this would be the best of all of them, I read through it only to realize that what I really need is the NEC book.
