I'm sad to see that the book is out of print and that the prices have skyrocketed!
I had a copy of this for several years that I really enjoyed... however I gave it away just today.
My wife and I went to Thienemans in Louisville for their annual tomato plant sale and picked up 44 tomato plants and most all of them were heirloom or op plants. (we also got to visit with Tomato Gary [Millwood] for a few minutes which was fantastic!)
A friend of ours mother is 84 years old and still gets out and gardens and likes to grow tomatoes. So we picked up a few extra plants for her. RC's Mortgage Lifter, Omar's Lebanese and Cherokee Purple hoping to give her some more variety. Since these three are included in Carolyn's book I thought it would be a nice gesture to give her my copy so she could read about these and enjoy the pictures while reading about all the other varieties as well.
Excellent book and I'll miss it, however I will poke around a bit and find a replacement! It's a must have!
