Seller's Description:
Very good. Connecting readers with great books since 1972! Used books may not include companion materials, and may have some shelf wear or limited writing. We ship orders daily and Customer Service is our top priority!
This book is fabulous to identify melons and explore the many varieties. The colorplates are breathtaking. Although she shares some valuable tips, it is not such a great text for actually gleaning gardening information.
Amy is so passionate, and the book so beautiful, it reinforces the reasoning behind maintaining abundant diversity in all our food.
