Summary The problem with most gardening books is that they're sooooo serious, with all the "do this" and "for heaven's sake, don't do that" rules. Who said they can?t be funny, too? Not Spiegelman, that's for sure. While offering plenty of sound and sensible organic gardening advice, Spiegelman lightens the load (much the way prescribed soil amendments do) with quippy asides and pithy observations that make the experience feel more like a casual conversation with a good, green-thumbed friend than a lecture from a stuffy horticulturist...--Booklist.
