    NGC - if you like MD's writings the the Prickotty Bush is one of my favourite books ever.  Out of print, but can sometimes pick up secondhand copies on Amazon.  Love the Katherine Swift Morville books too - beautifully written. Christopher Lloyd writes very readable books too - the well tempered garden is my favouriteimage

    If you like a well written book, Christopher Lloyd is (was) your man.

    I like a book I can read, the internet is good for information but not for a good read.

     The book on Highgrove Gardens is a few years old now but very good and interesting. Esp. the hen houses!

  • I was just wondering if anybody else who had similar reading interests could recommend something that they think I may also enjoy  image I do browse around for ideas but it's always nice to hear what other people have enjoyed reading  image

    I like personal reccomendations too - I'm never totally convinced that internet reviews haven't been written by the author or publisherimage
  • Mike, can youtell us which gardening books you enjoy reading - you must have read very many. image
