3.0 out of 5 stars GOOD INFO - JUST NOT ENOUGH OF IT!, June 1, 2001

By	Sandra D. Peters "Seagull Books" (Prince Edward Island, Canada) - See all my reviews (TOP 500 REVIEWER) (REAL NAME)

While this book has some nice concepts and illustrations on how to plan your garden floor, and offers a variety of materials to complete the task, I found the book simply did not provide enough detail or information. "Making Garden Floors" will make a nice complement to other existing books in your library, but you likely will not find enough information here to use as a "stand alone book." There are only 144 pages to this book, so it truly is condensed. However, what information that was provided was worth reading. Other books I do suggest for garden planning which have some excellent coloured photography and creative suggestions are, "The Complete Gardening Guide" by Peter McHoy (any material by McHoy is helpful in garden planning) and "Garden Structures" by Linda Joan Smith, which contains information on pathways, fences, walls and other structures.

5.0 out of 5 stars inspiring as well as technical, December 7, 2005

By	M. Broom (Florida) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This review is from: Making Garden Floors: Stone, Brick, Tile, Concrete, Ornamental Gravel, Recycled Materials & More (Paperback)

I first read this book as a library book and liked it so well I bought one for myself. The pictures of all sorts of garden floors and settings cover a wide range of materials and applications. There is also a technical section about tools, and site preparation, drainage solutions, various paving materials and methods of installation. I found the illustrations to be exciting and would recommend this book to anyone with a yard to landscape.

1.0 out of 5 stars Could have done much better., August 2, 2003

By A Customer

There is hardly anything to this book at all. A few pictures, a few pointers. It is not worthwhile.
