Book summary

Two hundred years' experience is condensed into this handy volume, which presents practical, tested, offbeat, witty, and uniquely American advice for the home gardener.

Media reviews

"[A] refreshing, slapstick approach to the recently sanctified, life-stylized, super-serious subject of gardening. Instead of presenting full-color photos of perfectly beautiful, perfectly boring gardens, this book...illustrates every hort point with comic sass....Planted between the antic illustrations is a rich crop of fascinating facts."
