( )Sometimes this book hit me a little too close for comfort, but overall a pretty decent read. His stories felt like the same garden miseries my wife, I, and our friends have experienced collectively - battles with groundhogs (I loved his "Superchuck"), deer, squirrels, and various other varmints. It was disappointing that he couldn't live up to his organic ideals, but I guess those are the choices we all have to make. Not a how to gardening book. This is a gardening memoir. William Alexander tells the story of how his garden came to be. He chronicles the changes in his garden and in himself over the course of twenty years. Since I enjoy peeking into other people's lives, I enjoyed this book. Enjoyed this book very much - great sense of humour, down to earth and oh so true. I won't feel so bad the next time I'm at the local farmer's market playing $5.99/lb for tomatoes! So true and very sweet. no reviews | add a review
