5.0 out of 5 stars fantastic beginning textbook, February 15, 2009

By	B. Ruemmele - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This textbook has much useful information for students preparing for a career in the turfgrass industry. It does not go into great depth on sports fields and golf courses, but there are other books that cover those details.
