Industry Reviews
"Mr. Pollan shines a light on our own nature as well as on our implication in the natural world."
New York Times - Richard Bernstein (06/05/2001)

"[A] wry, informed pastoral."
New Yorker (07/11/2001)

"This is one heck of a read. Pollan's mix of thoughtful contemplation , sterling reportage, and shimmering prose adds up to one thing: a garden book one can truly call important."
Fine Gardening - Steve Silk (06/01/2002)
