4.0 out of 5 stars Year Round Gardener, 22 Jul 2003
By Brian G (Dublin) - See all my reviews
I was hoping this book would be a "Dummies Guide" to growing vegetables, i.e. "March 1st, Dig hole and plant potatoes". However, the book is a diary of a year in the author's life, focussing on her work in her vegetable plot. Starting on New Year's Day she covers most aspects of her work in the garden up to Christmas of that year.
It's a good read in an easy style, and Ms Ledward has an impressive gardening pedigree. Buried in the text are useful tips on growing organic veg. She also includes recipes which are useful for getting rid of excess crops of spinach or whatever. (Her partner doesn't seem to be mad on vegetables, so she's constantly updating the reader on whether hubbie ate his greens the previous night).
However, if you're looking for an encyclopedia on vegetable growing, or a step-by-step guide, this book is not the one. Having said that, I enjoyed the book

3.0 out of 5 stars learning by mistakes, 30 April 2005
By A Customer
I should have read the customers reviews as well as the "official" review. The book was not what I had expected and had to be returned. I was expecting a beginners guide to vegetable growing and got a "Diary by a Vegetable Gardener" instead. Probably an interesting read but not what I needed. Luckily I bought the Joy Larkom book as well!

5.0 out of 5 stars A very good book, 7 Aug 2006
This book is one of a select few that I refer to on a regular basis, mainly for the timing of when to do things on my allotment but in the spring I also go through it again as it gives me a bit of a boost of encouragement (also known as a kick up the backside), it's not really a step by step guide for new gardeners though.
One of my favourite vegetable gardening books, I would love to see an update of how her plot is going
