More About the Author

For the first eight years of my life, I was a suburban kid in Manhasset, New York. Then we moved to the Pocono Mountains of Pennsylvania where I learned to hunt, fish, eat wild foods, and swim in pristine waters of spring-fed creeks. Then I lived in Manhattan. So I'm at home just about anywhere. My experiences in the country, though, were the most important, leading me through newspaper and magazine work to Organic Gardening magazine, where I developed a love of gardening and landscaping. Now I'm a wine writer for many magazines and the restaurant reviewer for Northern California's newspaper of record, the Santa Rosa Press Democrat, here in the heart of the Wine Country. I'm also a contributing editor to The Wine News and Horticulture magazines. I've written 18 books on food, wine, and gardening,--many of which are available on Amazon.

This review is from: Jeff Cox's 100 Greatest Garden Ideas: Tips, Techniques, and Projects for a Bountiful Garden and a Beautiful Backyard (Paperback)
I read this book last fall when I first started doing the research for my garden. It has some fabulous ideas for doubling your vegetables,recipes for organic insecicides,improving your current soils,etc. I could'nt wait to own my own copy to reference when it came time to "dig" in this spring!!

5.0 out of 5 stars WONDERFUL RESOURCE!, April 27, 2010
This review is from: Jeff Cox's 100 Greatest Garden Ideas: Tips, Techniques, and Projects for a Bountiful Garden and a Beautiful Backyard (Paperback)
Of course someone who rated this book 1 star wouldn't know how to spell "waste". This book was far from a waste of money. I love to carry my gardening tools around my waist. Fantastic book that was of great help to gardeners everywhere. Love it.
