5.0 out of 5 stars Begin any garden topic with John Brookes, January 28, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: The Garden Book: Designing, Creating, and Maintaining Your Garden (Paperback)
There is no better way to sit out a snowstorm than with any book by John Brookes on gardening or garden planning. A real treat to me is Country Gardening. Mr Brookes, alto British, has an artist's understanding of garden forms world-wide. Not pedantic, many lovely photos, ideas, plant recommendations. Some confusion over common names but he also provides the taxonomic (Latin) names. Master gardeners and enthusiatic amateurs will appreciate.

5.0 out of 5 stars SO old, yet so much info, January 8, 2010
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: The Garden Book (Hardcover)
U love this book, although see if your local library has it first, to make sure it is a garden book, you'll want to keep for ages. For me it was, for others it might not be - enjoy!
