Hi, William...
The first vegetable gardening book that I ever bought is still the one I
use most: "High Yield Gardening" by Marjorie B. Hunt & Brenda Bortz (Rodale
Press, 1986; ISBN 0-87857-599-5). "The Kitchen Garden" by Sylvia Thompson
(Bantam Books, 1995; ISBN 0-553-08138-1) has lots of information about the
culture of specific veggies and there is a companion cookbook by the same
author. Books that have more information about design and inspirational
photographs of various kitchen gardens are:
"Kitchen Gardens" by Cathy Wilkinson Barash (Taylor's Weekend Gardening
Guides, Houghton Mifflin, 1998; ISBN 0-395-82749-3)
"The Ornamental Kitchen Garden" by Janet Macdonald (David & Charles, 1994;
ISBN 0-7153-0236-1)
"The New Kitchen Garden" by Anna Pavord (Dorling Kindersley, 1996; ISBN
0-7894-0435-4)
"Beautiful American Kitchen Gardens" by Mary Dorra (Clarkson Potter, 1997;
ISBN 0-517-70304-1)
"The Complete Kitchen Garden" by Patrick Bowe (Macmillan 1996; ISBN
0-02-861309-0)
The five books listed above were all purchased as remainders from cataloges
or stores, so you might want check out your nearest Barnes & Noble or other
big bookstore or have your library get them for you.
