Do It Yourself: Home Improvement in 20Th-Century America by Carolyn M. Goldstein
My favorite part was looking at the photos and old ads. The book itself (95 pages of text, but I'd say almost 2/3 of the book is pictures) is interesting enough. But honestly, I felt like I was reading someone's master's thesis. There's no way it's worth the $17.95 they're selling it for on Amazon. But I got it on clearance for about $3, which seems fairly appropriate.
