Living in a crowded city need not mean uprooting one¡¦s connection with Nature. Arthur van Langenberg takes the mystery out of city gardening. He shows, in down-to-earth terms, how it is possible to connect with Mother Earth while managing with restricted spaces, the elements and pests which include birds, dogs, cats and the occasional philistine neighbour.
Established gardeners and rank beginners alike will find something helpful among these pages, which are sprinkled with anecdotes, recipes, photographs, illustrations, home-grown humour and grass-roots philosophy. Non-gardeners will also enjoy this celebration of nature and ecology in words and pictures.
