Review: Great entry level book - I had made a previous review of this book with a low rating. The reason for my low rating was not the book itself, it turned out to be a technical issue that prevented me from seeing the content of the book. Customer Service took care of this problem once I got around to contacting them and I have now read through at least most of the book. This is a very informative book if you are considering getting a greenhouse. I had just set one up and had found a lot of great information about setting up your greenhouse. Fortunately I had done most things correctly. This book covers everything you will need to get started and more. Being new to having a greenhouse I still think that people who have had them for a while would still find useful tips in this book.

Easy to read, good pics
This is a good beginner book, with lots of nice pictures. It seems to focus more on larger green houses rather than smaller ones for back yards. It has several good ideas in it.

For honest to goodness beginners
I guess I'm not as much of a beginner as I thought... Some might find this helpful but honestly this book is pretty basic. If you genuinely know nothing about gardening then this is for you.

Great info, not DYI for amateurs
The perfect addition to my plans for my passive house. Easy to undersrand, quite complete. But be careful, it's not really a DIY book; getting one built is ot for the amateur enthusiast. It's a bit of a promo for the company that builds zero net greenhouses.

In the opening page of the book, it says I can download the kindle version from Amazon, for free since I bought the paper back version. But I cant see where or how I can do this?
