Gardening books

'The Ultimate Household Handbook' is the third of a set of five complementary books. The first is 'Backyard Self Sufficiency (Aird books, $14.95). This tells you how to grow everything - from olive oil to porridge oats and year round tomatoes - in your backyard.

Then second is Switch! - a book of home made power, water and garbage systems $14.95 Austrlian (1994 with Bryan Sullivan, Aird Books) which describes home made power, water, sewerage and garbage systems. The fourth will come out in 1995 and is a book of harvests - how to make your own chocolate, mulberry wine, dried potatoes, ginger plums, dehydrated zucchini and the fifth will be a book on building alternatives.

Hopefully with all five books you'll be able to make ANYTHING... if you decide you really want to and if you don't ... well at least you'll have the knowledge for an emergency ... or to fantasise instead.
