Rodale's Basic Organic Gardening: A Beginner's Guide to Starting a Healthy Garden

I'm sure we will be able to use some of the information and tips in this book but if I had known it was written from a North American perspective I wouldn't have bought it. Maps of climate and some other information are not applicable to the UK.

I received this product, which does have good content however a few pages have not been printed and are missing the content on the pages!

This book overall is really informative. Unfortunately many of the pages had print issues, and had missing words and picture. I contacted the publisher and they sent me a replacement book, however THAT book had the same print issues. I contacted the publisher again and they looked into it and said many of their books had the same print issues. Instead of offering a refund or to send another replacement, they said I would have to contact them again in the Fall when they “might” have a corrected reprint! Talk about absolutely terrible customer service!!!!

As a first-time gardener, I've found this book as a perfect intro! It has everything you need to know to get started. It's very comprehensive. I bought another book for gardening, but realistically only needed to get this one.

I'm new to vegetable gardening and this book explained the basics in a clear, easy to follow way.
