Good books

[samw04]

i've just found £15 of WHS vouchers stuffed away in a safe place and thought i might get a good veg book with it. Any recomendations? cheers

The Carol Klein one is a winner in my humble opinion!

I love the Andi Clevelly one

Geoff Hamilton's Organic Gardening is packed full of tips, I learn something new from it every time I dip in.

Thankyou so much i may already have those
But after much scanning i've decided that i must go and flick thru a couple to make my choice but looking at there web page i'm thinking
RHS fruit & vegetable gardening by mike pollock. anyone got this one? what do you think??

Everyone has their favourite, but I'd agree with the suggestions above (although I've not read Geoffs).

One bonus having the WHSmith vouchers as you say, you can go have a browse.

Personally I find the D.G Hessayon books helpful - they cover various topics in depth rather than trying to cover everything.

Amazon.co.uk: D.G. Hessayon: Books

What about a nice recipe book if you already have lots of gardening books? I really like Sophie Grigson's "Vegetables" but Sarah Raven's cookbook is supposed to be good too

trouble with me i've got 3 kids at home so very limited on getting down the lottie can just see my 2yr old twins on other plots so during the day all i can do is seeds with the 4 yr old and read loads of books.
