The Victory Garden is a must. How to Grow World Record Tomatoes is great fun!

This is regional - and yet covers each crop too - Steve Solomon's "Growing Vegetables West of the Cascades" totally took my understanding of gardening, both in general and here in the PNW, to a whole new level. A must have or "Bible" for those of us here in PNW.

Yes! I got the 4th edition back when I was in Oregon, incredibly useful. He's gone on to write other non-regional books which're also good, but I have a great sentimental attachment to Growing Vegetables West of the Cascades, and still dip into it from time to time.

Steve Solomans "The Intelligent Gardener" on soil.

Also Brooklyn Botanic Gardens' "Tantalizing Tomatoes" is really good http://www.amazon.com/Tantalizing-To...atoes+brooklyn
