Best of all, it's hard to think of anything NOT covered here. . . and yet there's no sense of the text book in these pages, and only that homey feel one gets while actually gardening. Nicely done." --<i><b>Woodstock Times</b></i> <p/> "This guide to gardening in our neck of the woods covers all the basics, one month at a time." --<i><b>Cape Cod Times </b></i> <p/> "This book is everything a backyard gardener could want in an instructional guide. . . .
