It may be of interest to some here, although you can get a lot of it from the various Andean vegetables threads. There is a lot of HG in this book!

Kindle only for the next 90 days, after which it will be available on some other ebook platforms. A physical version will be coming along at the speed of print, sometime in the next month.

Unfortunately I have a very different climate and I don't know that most of the things you write about would do for me. Interesting to read about though. I too will keep an eye open for the print version.

I haven't bought a paper book in a long time, but it seems that I am an outlier. Again.

I couldn't get your site to allow me to put a book into the "cart". I tried several times over about three days or so, and then went to Amazon. They were on backlog, but one of their independent sellers had some so I did get one on order and it should be here next week. Then to decide what I can find and fit into this season.

~~What OS and browser do you use, dave? Did it give you any error? It works fine for me, of course.~~

Never mind, I think I sorted out the problem.

I see that happen sometimes and often I'm pretty sure it's due to my tight control over cookies (like none). If I had been sure it wasn't me, I'd have waited.
