The number 1 gardening best-seller in the UK since '97
- Kitchen Garden
Better veg with the gardening guru
- The Times
Get better, tastier produce from your garden or allotment
- Observer
This is the best book I have seen for the kitchen gardener
- Sunday Mirror
Two books became my bibles: Alan Titchmarsh's Allotment Handbook (sadly out of print) and Dr Hessayon's Vegetable & Herb Expert .... Thanks to Dr Hessayon, we became adept at recognising pests
- Mail on Sunday
A useful guide for an enthusiastic beginner or a reference book for someone more experienced. Overall this book represents excellent value for money
