Review: The author of this book appear to be trying to emulate school text books aimed at bottom sets; on each page, only 10-30 per cent of the space is actually taken up with text, while the rest is pictures. In some cases the pictures show a technique and are helpful (though they are still FAR larger than needed, charcheristically at least 3 inches each side). In other, they just seem to be there to bloat out the book and increase the page count: do we really need a full page picture of a cabbage to illustrate a page listing planting times for different crops?? I reckon if printed as a text booklet, there would be thirty or forty pages of properly laid out text of a size suitable for adults. Very disappointing: I'm surprised the RHS puts its name to such a low quality product.
