Joy of Gardening June 28, 2008 0 out of 1 found this review helpful
The book was not posted with a photo, so I didn't realize it was vegtable gardening and not flower. The book looked a little faded.
Best Gardening Book Ever March 23, 2008 I must admit this book is older than most of the books out there. But the author, Dick Raymond, has been gardening since he was a child and passes that info on easily. And the knowledge he provides here does not go out of style or use. If you are going to plant a garden this year, this is the book for you. His no nosense style coupled with his clear facts make it a joy to read AND understand. Any size gardener can gain tips from him. I found it on my aunt's book shelf - she puts in a 1/2 acre garden each year - but he has tips for the mini-gardener like me as well. He really makes my job easier and a joy.
The Must Have Book for Vegtable Gardening June 16, 2007 Dick Raymond is my guru! I do not do anything in my garden without consulting his book first. He has been there done that, the book speaks volumes to you as if Dick were right there next to you. Every time I pick up this book I find a new golden nugget that he has left for you. I showed the book to my father in-law Ed (who thought he was a garden expert) and I noticed how his style of gardening changed to Dicks. Ed could not put down the book, so I bought him a copy for Christmas.
Never do a garden without this book.
One of the best March 19, 2007 I highly suggest this book. It is one of my favority gardening books and I have given it to others as a gift.
The Jedi Master of Gardeners! March 16, 2007 Dick Raymond's book is the one book that everyone who wants to try to grow their own vegetables should have in their library. I refer to Dick as my "master" to anyone that asks my about my garden. The man was used of God several years ago as I almost memorized the book and produced a garden that even the old timers in our town had to admire--and that I needed to help feed my family. The old-timers in town didn't think the wide-row gardening technique would work, but when they saw the plants growing gangbusters, they were amazed.
Though I had always tried gardening, I had never had real success until I found this book, read it cover to cover, and began using Dick's techniques. It is straightforward, written in a down-to-earth manner that anyone can understand and enjoy.
My copy is almost 20 years old, and I can't imagine gardening without it!
