Hi all, another quick question - can anyone recommend a good book for my mother-in-law for Christmas, we are wanting one all about growing vegetables and fruit in your garden and what you should be doing when etc, when looking around we've found a lot of them are more for large scale growing or for too weird and wonderful produce, she just wants something nice, basic and easy!

Any recommendations as always gratefully received

I really like the litttle River Cottage handbook, it's small enough to carry around and it's very amusing, haas a few recipes too.
