Not only do you have to keep all systems in working order, but you have to keep disasters at bay. Where is a rookie homeowner to turn? To Janice Papolos and The Virgin Homeownerthe only book written exclusively with the first-timer in mind. Seasoned by her own painfully fresh adventures on the domestic frontier, the author provides reassuring and witty guidance on such subjects as "The Inner Mysteries" (plumbing, electricity, and the exotica of heating plants), "The Uninvited Guests" (from ants and termites to burglars), and "The Age of Innocence" (creating a safe home for your indefatigable child).
