good source
Good source with ideas and detailed pictures, good if building cabinets from ground up. I prefer 'build like a pro' building kitchen cabinets over this book. But this one would be my second choice.

VERY BASIC
If you have a project and have absolutely no idea how to start/complete it, this book "may be" for you. If you have a DEFINITE project in mind, this book IS NOT for you. John

Dated material
Old book with old information. Still uses face frame cabinetry and does not delve into European style cabinetry. Well, just very dated.
