Martha and Heloise are all very well. but frankly. they see housekeeping from a slightly different perspective. Where women view cleanliness as next to godliness. men see a sparkling bathroom as a great way to get laid. In 'How To Keep House. ' Sam Martin takes the latter tack. treating housework not as a personal virtue. but rather as a matter of sheer practicality. Organized closets mean more room for more stuff. Cleaning out the fridge reduces the risk of food poisoning. Knowing how to repair a burst pipe beats finding a plumber at 3 a. M. Covering good things like cleaning. laundry. home organization. tools. and maintenance. the book is an indispensable companion for the 21st-century man who can network a bank of computers but who can't iron a shirt to save his life.ISBN: 1552637689.
