Rating : - finally! someone who I want to learn from
I was visiting a friend in Westport, CT, and I saw this book there. Was interested to learn about his tv show and local appearances, so took a chance. I love it! And it all seems so achievable--not like some books where you know it was prepped by a staff of thousands and then the "celeb" stands in front of it and says "why didn't you think of this?" or "oh, it's so easy". Yah, right. I've ordered several more now that I'm back in NY City for friends and family, and everyone loves the story of how this man's garden evolved. You won't be disappointed.
