4.0 out of 5 stars RHS How to Garden (P/b edition) Bargain!, 5 Mar 2012
This review is from: RHS How to Garden: A Practical Introduction to Gardening (Paperback)
This is my second review for Amazon, and I am pleased to say that it is a very useful, well-written book, exactly as it says on the cover: a practical Introduction to Gardening. Like all Dorling Kindersley books, it is easy to read, well-designed and well-produced (even for a paperback); I can not understand why there is no preview on the website.

The easiest way to summarise the book is to list the Table of Contents:

1. The Garden You Want
2. The Garden You've Got
3. Flowerbeds & Borders
4. Perennials, Annuals & Biennials
5. Bulbs
6. Shrubs
7. Climbers
8. Roses
9. Grasses, Bamboos & Ferns
10. Lawns, Meadows & Gravel Gardens
11. Trees
12. Hedges
13. Containers
14. Tools & Techniques
15. Garden Doctor
16. Garden Year Planner

The book includes plant selections in each category, but there is nothing about growing fruit and vegetables... Read more

4.0 out of 5 stars RHS How to Garden, 30 Dec 2011
This review is from: RHS How to Garden: A Practical Introduction to Gardening (Paperback)
Just the job as a gift to a beginner. It is an introduction, just as it says on the cover, and anyone with experience would know most of it. But it will give a sound grounding in "good practice", and allow practice to make perfect.

    Will Dean's Ideas Factory: Billr app means an end to asking 'Why am I paying for your steak?'

    Somehow, it's never easy. Even if there's an even number of you. Even if everyone has the same meal. And the same drinks. Even the tip can make things complicated.

    Trending: Hardbacks vs e-books: the sequel

    In the world of journalism it's called a "reverse ferret" - a story breathlessly announcing that Black is White, just 24 hours after confidently asserting that Black is Black. In the genteel environs of publishing, it's a volte-face. Whatever it is, James Daunt, owner of Daunt Books and managing director of the Waterstones chain, executed a classic twirl at the weekend.

    Invisible Ink: No 124 - Hans Fallada

    His pen-name was created from two characters in Grimm's fairy tales, but his novels had little in common with the moralistic fantasies of mittel-Europe. Rudolf Ditzen was a magistrate's son, raised in Berlin and immersed in Dickens, Flaubert and Dostoevsky. He became one of the greatest German authors of the 20th century, but was not translated into English until 2009.

    The curious world of Norton Juster

    Some people are very easy to interview. Norton Juster is not one of them. He's delightful and articulate, but listening to the recording of our time together, it's striking how much more interesting his answers are than my questions. So our conversation entirely failed to resolve classics such as "Where did the idea for your book come from?" and ended up instead about vocational education, bipolar disorder, obscure Edwardian ghost-story writers, C P Snow, synaesthesia and the walks Juster used to take with his older brother. In some respects, it's hardly surprising; Juster has been giving interviews about his children's classic The Phantom Tollbooth for half a century, so might be forgiven for wanting his conversations to roam elsewhere.

    How Aharon Appelfeld chronicled the Holocaust

    Blooms of Darkness, in Green's graceful, grave and irresistibly readable English version, tells the story of Hugo, a young Jewish boy in an occupied town in eastern Europe who loses his parents to the camps but stays alive thanks to the shelter and salvation offered him by a local prostitute, Mariana. It extends and deepens one of the most remarkable journeys in all modern literature. In a prolific career whose highlights include novels such as Badenheim 1939, Tzili, The Immortal Bartfuss and The Iron Tracks, as well as the memoir The Story of a Life, Appelfeld has interrogated the meaning of what happened to him, to his community, and to humanity itself, during Europe's era of genocide.

    Gwendoline Riley: A portrait of the artist as a brooding young woman...

    Gwendoline Riley was finishing her first novel at the age that most of us were sleeping in, bunking off, or congregating around a pint at the student union bar. Turning her university dissertation into her debut, Cold Water (2002) she signed a two-book deal at the age of 22. Since then, she has accumulated a hipster-ish following and several literary awards (Somerset Maugham Award, the Betty Trask Award, a John Llewellyn-Rhys Memorial prize shortlisted nomination).
