About the Book

"It is a truth universally acknowledged that nobody in the entire history of the universe has ever seen an angry gardener." Accompanied by Ken Guy's wonderfully characterful cartoons and using the same style and humour that made his original 'Scenes from a Smallholding' sell many thousands of copies, Chas Griffin gets down and mucky in the vegetable plot to enthuse and share with anyone who doesn't know a garden knife from a garden fork the delights of growing organic veg because "now that heightened sensibility has taken peacock off the menu, nothing satisfies the old hunter-gatherer in us better than a hatful of zinging-fresh peas." With so many vegetable books on the market this one is refreshingly different - the antidote to gardening books. Yes, it's practical, but Chas takes it to a new level, making it a damn funny book too, which you can read sipping your cocoa at night with your rollers in (do people wear rollers anymore?), or alongside your seed catalogues in the potting shed - don't have a shed? Well, on the patio then. Either way this book is unlike any of the zillions of veg growing books that are multiplying on the shelves of every bookshop and garden centre written by any old celebrity who has been within spitting distance of a garden fork. But whether you garden or not, Chas's book will be like a door opening and the clouds parting, a revelation taking you, no, pushing you along with his gusto and enthusiasm out your back door and into your garden because, quite frankly, growing veg is bloody easy and any fool can do it, therefore so can you. Buy it for yourself, buy it for a friend. The author suggests you buy 10 if only to show you have more than one friend!

About the Author :
In 1982 Chas Griffin and his family left the security of suburbia and a safe teaching job to grow garlic in Wales. He wrote about his experiences in two funny books that shared with the reader how they learned lambing, marketing, ploughing and hay-making. They sold in tens of thousands and held the title Waterstones' Paperback of the Year. His writing style has been likened to "a Bill Bryson down on the farm."
