 Rating: - Very US orientatedI bought this book a while ago, when I acquired a house with a pool in France. I have since learned how to take care of my pool, but I have to say most of my knowledge has been acquired not from this book, but by laboriously hunting around on the internet. The author clearly has loads of experience with plaster pools in the US, but things seem to work rather differently with a typical liner pool here in France. The American names for many chemicals are different from those we use in British English, and the products and equipment commonly available here are rather different than those described in the book. The book gave no insight whatsoever into managing water chemistry with a salt chlorinator. Given how common they are now, that was very surprising, and a major omission, as the water chemistry does seem to behave very differently with a chlorinator installed. All in all, this book didn't really help me very much.
