instead of purchasing expensive books (unless you can find some in thrift
stores), why don't you lurk around the news groups and also go to
www.gardenweb.com and some other garden sites and LEARN...to me, best way to
learn is: ASK QUESTIONS!! (remember, the only stupid question is the one
which never got asked!)

Subject: Best books for biointensive gardening?

I would like to learn, starting from almost total gardening ignorance,
how to grow a substantial percentage of my family's diet in my back
yard.
Any suggestions on good books or other educational resources?

Any comments on Bartholomew's "Square Foot Gardening" or Jeavon's
"Grow More Vegetables"?
