How to Build a Winter House in a Tropical Climate by Stages, a new book by Stephen A. Gaskin, has been released by Dorrance Publishing Co., Inc.

This how-to guide for potential builders outlines the information needed to construct a home. Common building terminology is defined, and the pros and cons for renting, buying, and building are discussed. Hints are also provided to help choose the professionals-plumber, electrician, carpenter, mason, etc.-to hire for the project. The stages of building, from preparation and excavation to roofing, are also detailed.

Stephen A. Gaskin was born in Barbados but has made New Jersey his home for more than twenty-five years. The married father of two daughters has dreamed of spending his retirement writing. His first step in making that a reality was authoring this book.
