Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)This book is ideal for the coffee table but, as an informative book, it doesn't make the cut. The photographs are beautiful but the writing style lacks the punch necessary for how-to books and the reading is made more difficult by the injection of examples of different "kitchen gardens" in the midst of the chapters. Also, the gardens discussed are not such as could be duplicated by the average gardener, who does not have several acres of land to turn into a landscaped masterpiece.

No longer a mere patch of vegetables close to the back door, the contemporary kitchen garden is a melange of personal flair and culinary practicality with the color of a flower garden. Patrick Bowe, a landscape/garden designer, is author of many books, including The Gardens of Ireland. Cynthia Woodyard is a well-known garden photographer whose credits includeAnnuals for Connoisseurs. 125 photos. 20 full-color line drawings.
