Awaiting January...... - By: Ms. Carla A. Davies, 15 Aug 2008 
This is a brilliant & very cheap little book. It doesn't take much reading & has all the area you could require for a simple garden. The A-Z of vegetables is clear; just what is needed to go with the month by month guide. It is also helpful to deal with any problems one might come across. All together a well rounded book! Some of the diagrams would perhaps benefit from some colour though. Carla x
Excellent value - By: D. Caston, 01 Aug 2008 
Written by a real gardener, it's thorough, concise, inexpensive, well-laid out & a good read.
An excellent read - By: wafflycat, 28 May 2008 Have to say the book is writtenin a way that it is an easy, engaging read, which puts across an interest & detailin the subject that is rather infectious. It gives explanations & descriptionsin plain English, as if the author is standing next to you holding a conversation with you rather than talking at you. It doesn't have lots of glossy pictures of marvellous gardens & plants, but it has something far more important: necessary information put acrossin a way that as a beginner, I felt I wasn't being talked down toin a way some celebrity gardeners do tend to do IMO. The information given is incredibly useful & practical. It's going to be one of those books I popin & out of when needed, & will be come well-thumbed & well-used. I recommend it.
Excellent Budget Book - By: A. Grant, 30 Apr 2008 This book has much more detail & info than the glossy photo books. It is a nice compact size & I have found the advice very useful as a beginner.
Excellent Read - guaranteed to impress - By: Paula Cooke, 08 Apr 2008 As the title suggests - down to earth guide. You can really relate to the author & the information goes further than the usual veg books, rather than the usual colour photos of tools, veg etc, its crammed with tips & advice that are usually passed down from generations. There are diagrams & sketches when needed - simple clear & easy to follow. Another thing I liked was the author covers all methods & doesnt 'preach' a certain method, just gives the facts so you can choose yourself. VERY highly recomended & very thorough. Easy to read & a book I will keep close at hand - fitsin the handbag. Such good value for money, every page has been used to its full. Well done John Harrison
