Media Reviews

"My wholehearted hurrah for Henry Mitchell's new book, whose every page is filled with his irascible, wholly unpretentious voice...Mr. Mitchell never tries to be funny or erudite. He just is."    -- Anne Raver

   -- New York Times Book Review

"'Garden writer' fails to describe this man. He gardens and he writes - the former with lust and loathing, foolhardiness and finesse; the latter with gentle irony and consummate skill."

   -- Pacific Horticulture

Publisher's Notes

Henry Mitchell's writing "combined the cadences of the Book of Common Prayer with the timing of Jack Benny. He was humble, cantankerous, ironic, and forbearing. He is sorely missed" (Allen Lacy).

Gardening Mad
by Monty Don

Humorous, charmingly idiosyncratic, full of trenchant observations and great tips, Monty Don entertains and educates the arm-chair gardener and the passionate life-long gardener alike. His essays are complimented by the exquisite photographs of Fleur Olby, which capture the sensuality of plants and flowers with an unusually striking grace. Composed around the calendar year, this visually stunning book covers a great melange of subjects, including Valentine Roses, Novice Gardening, Apples, Red!, New Age Gardening, Christmas Trees, and Neighbors. Don writes about gardening as an experience, rather than a particular science, integrating hard work, vitality, and esprit in a enthusiastic examination of the gardening life.
