by Eliot Coleman

Average Customer Rating: 4.5
Review (rating: 3):
The book is very helpful when it comes to thinking about winter gardening but I think the average person will not have access to a huge portable greenhouse to accomplish this.

| Gardening When It Counts: Growing Food in Hard Times (Mother Earth News Wiser...
by Steve Solomon
Amazon Price: $13.57
Used Price: $11.96
Average Customer Rating: 4.0
Review (rating: 3):
This book is mostly an autobiography, I think. Some gardening advice that appeals to me but I haven't been able to try yet. I found the author very interesting, but am put off by his constant criticism of other gardening methods. It felt like a therapy session for him to write this book. I don't recommend this book for someone who just want to know how to grow food on the cheap. If, however, you just like reading books about gardening and growing in general then it will do just fine.

Average Customer Rating: 5.0
Review (rating: 5):
This was one of my first herb books, and it really gave such great instructions, I had a great experience and plan to double my fun this year. When I picked this book I knew NOTHING about gardening. I succussfully grew:
-Rosemary
-Lemon Balm
-Sage
-3 types of Basil
-3 types of mint
-orageno
-thyme
-chamomile
-lavender (had some trouble but it's coming back great this year!)
I've read more about herbs now, but this book is still used all the time. If you could get only one, get this, you won't be sorry!!!
I give it an A+

| Gaia's Garden, Second Edition: A Guide To Home-Scale Permaculture
by Toby Hemenway
Amazon Price: $19.77
Used Price: $22.20
Average Customer Rating: 5.0
Review (rating: 5):
This book provides both theory and practice of Permatculture in a good balance. As an update to an earlier edition it adds useful and timely information. Practical and helpful in advancing the theories and praxis of Permaculture - an idea whose time has come!
As one just beginning the journey into Permaculture I found it very valuable - sparking both further interest and creative exploration - doing the work of Permaculture. There is a good future and it is shining with possibilities!

| Bonsai (101 Essential Tips)
by Harry Tomlinson
Amazon Price: $5.00
Used Price: $1.24
Average Customer Rating: 4.0
Review (rating: 4):
I ordered this book along with my first purchase of my first Bonsai tree. It is really a great beginner book, even small, it contains many colored illustrations, and has many facts that help you to keep your Bonsai healthy. If you intend on being more than a casual Bonsai owner, and want to get into doing your own Bonsai's, then you will find yourself moving quickly to other more in depth books. Anyone that buys their very first Bonsai should definitely pick this book up. It is compact, and inexpensive. It gives enough information to also help you decide whether you want to explore being more of a Bonsai person. I would recommend it to anyone who is a novice Bonsai person.

| Square Foot Gardening: A New Way to Garden in Less Space with Less Work
by Mel Bartholomew
Amazon Price: $13.59
Used Price: $11.49
Average Customer Rating: 4.5
Review (rating: 4):
I am not an expert gardener. Every year my garden gets a little better, but it has a long way to go... I found this book helpful and encouraging, with information that (so far) has made a big difference in my ability to keep up with the garden. The book is easy to read, easy to understand and makes gardening using this method seem logical and simple. If you have a lot of success with your garden already but want to spend less time working on it, or if you really want to start gardening but don't know how, or if you are like me and just need some help, it's a pretty good place to start.
