Graham Haley

I bought this on a lark, but I'm glad I did. There are a lot of useful ideas for cleaning a number of things with common household items and ingredients -- no need to buy fancy, brand-name cleaning products. And it all actually works! If you're looking to get away from chemicals, you should definitely look into this book. Granted, many of these hints you may be able to find on the internet; however, the convenience of having everything in one handy book cannot be denied. One caution: Haley's show more do-it-yourself routes do not always equate with non-toxic. There are some tips that include things like bleach or ammonia. Happily, there's usually alternative 'recipes' that don't use such products. Nevertheless, it's definitely a case of 'take what you like, leave what you don't.' show less

I've been looking for a useful book on green cleaning for a while now, and I think I finally found it. Doesn't waste a lot of time convincing me to use green cleaners, just gets right to the point. Well arranged for easy reference, and the recipes are simple (read: not intimidating). This is one I'll be looking to add to my personal collection.

Well done, easy to follow and so very very helpful.
