From: Amazon Posted: May 15, 2007 Type: User Review More about Michael Pollan than gardens

That's not entirely fair, but...this is a book of essays, not a natural history or gardening book. It is about Pollan's perceptions of nature and landscape, through the gateway of his garden. He does only enough research to flesh out his musings...
