Review:

The Natural Gardener would be my first choice, not just because Bourne writes so engagingly, but also because of its outstanding photos ... In a subject dominated by the rich and grand, it's refreshing to hear about someone who has achieved wonderful results on a shoestring budget. Independent on Sunday It is refreshing to find a guide to gardening that does not foster the idea that a garden must be weed-filled and wild to attract wildlife ... I would recommend this book to beginners and experienced gardeners alike. They will find inspiration in the author's enthusiasm and knowledge. Garden Full of detailed observations and sensible advice, showing how to make a garden that is not just wildlife-friendly but also beautiful. There are some lovely photographs taken by Clive Nichols.
