Handy Guide
Really enjoyed this book as it has been a great introduction and guide for creating my own herb garden. There is plenty of information about plants and growing conditions, while a lot of ideas and general gardening knowledge learnt in this book can be transferred to most styles of gardening, not just that of herbs.

Herbs for you
If you are like me and you love the idea of gardening herbs and using them in your cooking, but you can't get a plan to stay alive no matter how much you try? Then this book is certainly for you. The author goes into great details about how to identify the herbs how to plant them the best ways, which ones do well next to each other and which ones don't. The author also helps identify a lot of mistakes that are commonly made and how to avoid them, or if you already made that mistake he writes how to fix it. Which for me was the most important part. I really like this book since it was easy for me to read and understand and it was not too long, but still provided all the information that I needed. I now have a couple of plants living on my kitchen counter and I am much more hopeful in my abilities of keeping them alive. A fantastic book to get for any kitchen gardener.

The book goes into the best ways to grow herbs, the conditions that need to be met, as well as which herbs compliment each other and how to use they while cooking. What I really liked about this book is that it is very easy to follow and understand. The steps that are included and the information about the individual types of herbs is useful to those with experience and those with none.
