review 1: So this book has no pictures and the guy doesn't believe in mulch. I kinda couldn't get into it. Plus, no mulch? Seriously? He may be a good garden guy in Connecticut, but try that no mulch idea in Northern California and you will be in a heap o' trouble - water loss and weeds will ruin your best gardening intentions. There are better gardening books out there, especially geared towards my climate (Nor Cal, zone 9).
review 2: Hey guys, I'm Sal and I'm going to give you a step by step guide on how to garden in a small-plot while still maintaining high-yields.All you need is 3000 sq ft of land.:\Good book though, chalk full of information- planting in succession seasonal guide,interesting take on mulch,great for beginners I read this among Square Foot Gardening,
... moreas did everyone else apparently.Sal is great with defining some key gardening terms/ideas. I haven't honestly put any of his words into work in my own garden, but this is definitely a book that I'll have to trace back to when I need some help with my compost pile. less

This would be a great guide for a truck farmer but is not of much use for the home hobby gardener.
