Reviews from Amazon:
I am not a novice vegetable grower, but I needed a reference book that I could check up that I was doing the right thing. I found the book quite a good easy read full of information.
Every common vegetable was in a section of its own and easy to find! The section about a flagging allotment I found very interesting and informative.
I would recommend this book to novice and experienced gardeners!!!
