"Solomon's a high-Pitta guy, and it comes out in his writing. There's a lot of great information in here, and he's clear about what he's trying to teach his readers to do. I find this one goes better in context with other gardening books to suit my needs, but there's no doubt this guy knows what he's talking about.
I can recommend this one to gardening nerds and folks who really want to grow most of their own food."
"if you are an experienced gardener or a complete beginner this is the one book you need. i bought it for my husband a couple years ago and we have both read it through numberous times and reference it over and over during the garden season"
"A complete fount of knowledge. It takes the reader from ground level explaining every step involved in growing your own food. Easy for the novice to understand but not boring or condescending to the expert. The recipe for mixing your own soil conditioning fertilizer alone is worth the price of the book. A timely book that everyone should read in an era where seeds and bullets are the safest investments."
