Blog Book News

Another quick breeze through the garden book bits and pieces that I have happened across recently.

The big news is of course the free books up for grabs at VP's Virtual Open Garden.

Meanwhile Emma Townshend is still reading anything with a vaguely horticultural link - this time strawberries.

Again more groovy stuff from my fellow vintage book fan Amanda - although the featured garden looks quite contemporary.

I am in a total green eyed frenzy over a new book R Pete Free has acquired, less so about the gay Alan Titchmarsh book.

And finally a blog I found that has a free E-book for download, and some book reviews [plus a certain measure of cat-nutterdom]

yes but now i have in my possession a copy of the cloud garden, and also Carl Kraus's Weathering Winter, because I thought I might as well get in there early

Slightly too many cats but not the worst. The oddest statement was in the first paragraph where the idea of hanging washing to dry outside is hailed as a major advance in green thinking - tell that to the laundrymaid

I am confused as to which book this refers to. I don't think there are any cats in the Cloud Garden. and Weathering Winter doesn't seem to have anything in about drying laundry. Hmmm... I may have to do more research.
