Default FA Rarer Vegetable Cultivation growing gardening 1906

I've got the Readers Digest "The Gardening Year" from 1968 which was an
absolute treasure to help me control the garden in all it's variety. It
goes by month and covers everything though i suspect the timing of
things is now a little way off.
Nevertheless, you can't enjoy a garden until you can at least have an
idea of when and how to do the basic stuff. There doesn't seem to be the
equivalent nowadays.
Also have "The NEW small garden " as well as Saunders etc. However I
have a feeling the OP wasn't so much as recommending the book as touting
for a customer
