The Melon
by Amy Goldman
“The Melon” is large, lavishly illustrated as well as informative, well-written, concise, and clear- in fact, a first-rate reference book. Tucked between photographer Victor Schrager’ s gorgeous, seductive portraits of each melon are carefully researched variety descriptions and histories, advice on growing, primers on saving seeds and hand pollination, and a complete list of seed sources. —The American Gardener
