this one was good for all of the detail it went into, but most of that detail i'm not ready to pore over at the moment since my ability to do any of these things is extremely limited at the moment. that being said i'd probably take another look at it when the possibilities became more realistic. also, their use of crazy fonts to make the pages more dynamic is an interesting, but distracting design choice, sometimes making it hard to read the titles/subjects! Lots to recommend this book. Good information in manageable chunks. Very thorough. Except no info on growing watermelons. Or any melons for that matter. Do they not do melons in Seattle? One (other) complaint: descriptions of weeds and pests with just b/w line drawings. I understand the environmentally friendly paper and ink, but it's not enough detail to recognize unfamiliar bugs and plants. But, everything on how to grow from prepping the soil to preserving the produce. A great reference book.
Any day now... I've ordered this book and it should be coming in any day now...
