Customer Reviews

what a brilliant book
I am not a gardener, I have never watched gardeners world and have only a small back yard. i somehow came across this book while browsing amazon and thought it would be a nice stocking filler for my husband. anyhow, it is so easy to follow and inspiring that we now have green beans, leeks, onions and shallots growing in our little garden. The difference in taste from supermarket veg is unbelievable. This is a great book that takes you from buying seeds to taking vegetables out of the ground, if i can do it, anyone can! Next season we are moving on to courgettes, potatoes, broccoli........

great book
I watched the tv series and was inspired so dug up a bit of lawn and got this book. really easy to follow - would recommend it v highly indeed

EXCELLENT!
A fast moving read, very intelligent, spells it out, I couldn't put it down. Which is unusual for books of this type. Normally the going to very dry, exceedingly droll. but this author lays everything out in highly interesting fashion.

The points made are worth making, too, which alone sets it apart from other books in this genre.
