In this handsome volume, Jennifer Bartley shows how the traditional features of the classic kitchen garden, or potager, can be adapted to contemporary needs and conditions.

"Very pretty book with lots of history on the origin of the kitchen garden. Not very useful for the beginner on how to take a big plot of land and um, turn it into a kitchen garden. Oh well."
"This is the best gardening book I've read this year. I met Jennifer Bartley while at the Garden Writers Assoc. symposium, and she told me a bit about the book's background. It began as her Master's Thesis, and you can tell it from the depth of her writing. I loved the history of the gardens and am making plans to move my vegetable garden and reshape it because of this book. Worth every penny."
"This was a wonderful book. There is a great overview of the history of kitchen gardens as well as modern examples. Some of the things would be prohibitively expensive for most people, but inspiring nonetheless."
