expert opinion
Great value but seriously dated. Outdoor lighting has gone through a revolution since 1984. The market is now filled to bursting with manufacturer's innovations including the adoption of low voltage halogen lamps (particularly the MR-16) in place of the old automotive-type 12v lamps. Still a good overview of both 120v and 12v systems and the price can't be beat. I've given dozens of copies away to clients over the years. Deserves an update. Ortho, are you listening?

How to design and install outdoor lighting.
This book was marvelous! It gave me some great ideas on how to save time and money. I have always wanted to try and install a unique lighting arrangement at the front and the back of my home, but I was very leery about the expense I would incur and the knowledge to "go ahead and try that, any way". I truly think this book is worth every dollar. You will not be disappointed......

Landscape Lighting
This paperback has plenty of pictures of finished products showing the final outcome of landscape lighting techniques. Well written easy-to-follow instructions makes this how-to book a pleasure to read. I would recommend this book to any beginner that needs a general idea of how to design and install outdoor lighting.
