Customer Reviews:
Very Useful.......2007-06-13
I just bought Knitting and I've already used it to help me design a pair of socks for my husband. I think it is great.
So many fantastic patterns!.......2007-06-11
I have yet to knit a pattern from this book, but I will say when I received it and flipped through it, I will say that I would knit 90% of those patterns. There is so much to choose from and they are all fantastic! If you are a sock knitter, I highly recommend this book.
not as detailed.......2007-05-12
I wasn't as impressed by this book. I am a new sock knitter and the book was not as detailed as others I've come across.
Must have for sock knitters.......2007-05-04
This was the first book I bought while learning to knit socks. She has wonderful explanations for the steps and different kinds of heels and toes. Lovely patterns, with beautiful yarns, which can all be easily substitited for any yarn you want to use.
Not what I thought.......2007-01-04
I thought this book was about patterns that could be worked on when on the road. Nice and easy projects to take with you. But no. This book is about patterns that the author was inspired by her trips on the road. Oh well!

Customer Reviews:
An excellent text........1999-09-15
An exceptionally well written book. Dr. Bosland from NMSU, Las Cruces is recognized as one of the top pepper researchers in the country (along with Molly Kyle at Cornell). Dave DeWitt adds his ineffable brand of humor to the thoroughly readable text. This book is not as technical as some other books written for the hobbyist or small scale farmer, but it covers a wide range of topics concerning pepper production. I own a number of books about vegetable production in general and peppers in particular; this book is one of my favorites. In addition, some excellent books about pepper pathogens are offered by the AVRDC in Taiwan.
Fills all the needs of the average pepper grower........1998-03-31
The Pepper Garden provides everyone with a vast collection of information ranging from the history of peppers to the pests and diseases that attack them. Unfortunatly, the book falls short in providing the reader with in-depth information on growing peppers during the most crucial stage; seeds and germination. Overall, the book is a must-have reference for all gardeners interested in "growing fire"...
Chile grower's bible.......1996-08-27
A comprehensive tool for the beginner chile pepper grower
and a great reference manual for the more experienced. This
book walks a novice through the entire growing process;
from seed propagation techniques to garden layout.
Covers the history of chile peppers from the beginning of
recorded history (well, at least close) to present day
commercial and home growing operations.
No pepper afficianado should be without this manual.
Some full color illustrations, many useful line drawings,
and a bushel basket full of additional pepper seed sources.
Customer Reviews:
Could Have Been A Great Book.......2005-08-14
The author never really focusses on a paricular audience. She speaks to those who have never grown peppers, but then provides an encyclopedia of varieties which should be grown. Unfortunately, seed and plant sources for many of the varieties are not provided. This is dissapointing, and makes me suspect of the book. Describing a fantastic variety in detail, but not providing a source to obtain it, is wrong. I could write lots of books like that.
Recipes look good.
Great book for the novice...........2004-06-27
In THE EDIBLE PEPER GARDEN, Rosalind Creasy demonstrates a variety of ways to grow both sweet and hot peppers (beds along the driveway,in the flower bed next to the street or in containers). I very much appreciated some of her tips about pepper plants such as warning the reader that temperatures can be either too hot or too cool, especially for potted pepper plants, and that PH balanced soil is important for happy peppy plants. Apparently, not only can pepper fruits experience sunscald, the pepper plant roots can literally be cooked on the south side of the pot. And, pepper plants like soil on the sweet side.
I knew very little about hot peppers before 2004 (I'm growing them for my parrots who likes them very much), but I found most of what I need to know in Creasy's book. This spring, I purchased six pepper plants from Seeds of Change, and promptly mixed them up when I repotted them. Creasy includes many great photos and a section with pictures with text descriptions of the main pepper plant categories, so thanks to her I think I've just about sorted them out. This book is not an encyclopedia however, and as a result of my carelessness, I am still trying to determine the identity of two of the plants. Type matters, apparently, as Creasy says some peppers are best harvested green while others should be allowed to ripen. If you are interested in growing peppers in pots or garden beds, this is a great place for the novice to begin.
One of the better pepper books.......2003-08-15
I have a hugh selection of pepper books, this is one of the best. Great illustrations, good listing of pepper types and sources, and great, yet simple receipes. If you grow peppers , as I do, the section on gardening is straight forward. A hint, always grow larger types in a cage.
Fun and informative for the beginner.......2000-03-28
As a do-it-yourselfer of limited skill, I'm always excited to see Ros Creasy come out with a new book. She covers a lot of ground (no pun intended) in how to use peppers as a decorative plant as well as one to bring into the kitchen. Bravo!
Book Description
Some of the foremost horticulture and food experts in America have joined forces to produce the first chile pepper book specifically for gardeners. This indispensable guide teaches the history of the chile, the science behind their heat, why people keep coming back for more, and the remedies used to cure the diseases and pests afflicting chile pepper plants. Amateur and experienced gardeners alike will learn to grow many different varieties, indoors and out, and will be able to cook up a fiery feast using their homegrown chiles. The beautiful color photographs make species identification easy, and the list of seed retailers is a handy reference for every gardener.
Customer Reviews:
Okay, but not about growing peppers per se............2005-05-04
I bought this book used because I wanted to compare the BBG CHILE PEPPER book with other pepper books and the price was right. I have a confession. I never eat peppers. I can grow anything that smacks of capsicum, but I don't even like the smell of green peppers on pizza. Okay, I make chili and do it the right way with several tablespoons of ground chili pepper, and I eat plenty of Asian food including various dishes with pepper, and I love Salsa, but I avoid items on the menu with the little chili pepper (Szechewan, "hot" Thai) and I no longer eat Black Pepper because it makes me sneeze. My son-in-law pops whole peppers in his mouth - right off the plant, and the hotter the better. He scoffs at Scoville units, and he's teaching the bolder of my granddaughters to engage in the same crass behavior. I know that Capsicum helps relieve pain, so he should feel no pain this summer. I prefer my Capsicum in tablet form or as an ointment.
I grow peppers because they are so pretty and easy to grow. I place them in clay pots and line the driveway. I take the tall purple and black varieties and lace the perennial beds. I use them as the "fill" in potted arrangements. Peppers make great accent plants, and they can handle drought in hot summer. In fact, they love drought. Apparently, the more drought the better the pepper. The BBG CHILE PEPPERS monograph includes a section on growing `Small Chiles and Ornamentals', but it's very short, lacks photos and is not terribly helpful for those who would like to enhance their garden plots. I found Rosilind Creasy's EDIBLE PEPPER GARDEN more helpful.
The BBG CHILE PEPPER book is filled with recipes for main dishes, pepper dishes and salsas and vinegars, and shows you how roasted peppers should look before you whip them into a salsa.
I like the book because it is short and to the point with lots of photos. As a gardener, I find it more cook book than anything else, although it includes the inevitable section on pests and diseases. I am always puzzled by this, because the least of my concerns with peppers are pests and diseases. In fact pepper can be used as an insect deterrant.

Simple Pleasures.......2001-12-23
Jane Pepper has been writing a gardening column in the Philadelphia Inquirer for more years than I can remember, and for just that long, she has been part of my gardening life. Pepper has a way with words, and a way with plants, that make her columns a pleasure to read and very easy to understand, "Jane Pepper's Garden" is a treasure trove of her best advice.
I am giving this book to several gardeners on my holiday list to tide them over the long winter months. It is such a pleasure to read, and written with such enthusiasm, that one starts daydreaming even on a snowy day: "Maybe I should start roses this year. Maybe I can really do it...I wonder if I should move my hostas?"
Born in Scotland, Pepper retains that distinctly British no-nonsense voice. The book begins in the month of March, as she explains what can be done and should be done to prepare for the season ahead. It is like talking to a favorite aunt over tea, and one cannot help feeling inspired.
Houseplants are not neglected in this book, and Pepper speaks of them with the same enjoyment that she does roses...and everything else.
This book is a treasure. Do yourself a favor and buy it for yourself. Then, when the weather is at its bleakest, you can turn to "Aunt Jane" and talk gardens to your heart's content.

This book is so full of information and different things to try. There is no one cure all for all who are affected. This book gives you many things to try and the knowledge that at some point there will be relief from the pain.
Doctor recommeded it.......2005-11-03
My OB/GYN recommended this book to me and it confirmed his dianosis of vulvodynia. I had surgery (per his recommendation with success rates) and I was and still am pain-free. Reading this book made me realize I had this disorder and my doctor cured me with a very simple surgery.
The Vulvodynia Survival Guide.......2005-09-18
Great book for women to read. It will be of great help in my practice as a menopause clinician. I refer patients to read regarding a healthcare situation and this book will be very helpful and informative for them. It is a great addition to my library.
