Written by a Master Gardener with thirty years experience, this handy guide for gardeners of any experience includes ten chapters. They cover everything from soil, tools, plants, varieties, seeds versus starter plants, and guidelines for doing things the easiest and cheapest way. The chapters are relatively short and divided graphically for ease of identification and usefulness. Along the way, a color coded "Dirt Cheap" tip is included on the subject at hand. Black and white illustrations are utilized when necessary to aid understanding. There are plenty of lists for necessary items, such as: plants that do best in wet or dry soils or acid or alkaline soils, essential tools to have on hand or plants to discourage pests. All the information is designed to make gardening as productive, reasonable in cost, and enjoyable as possible. Anyone who gardens knows the rewards and frustrations. The more knowledge one has ensures more successful gardening. This book is a handy source for that knowledge. Appendices list varieties of fruits and vegetables best suited for various situations as well as resources for further information. Reviewer: Meredith Kiger, Ph.D.
