I have had Carolyn Males book for about 6 yrs and coming apart at the binding from so much use
Bought one of 100 Heirlooms for my wifes aunts xmas present this year - she is about 80 and for the first time this year after hearing me harp on heirlooms for many years she finally planted her first heirloom - a Dr Wyches which she loved - my wife and her sister meet with her in Jan to exchange gifts and the one from me will - well lets say will change her life forever - wait till she starts tasting the rest of the yellows and then move on to the rest - I also have Amy Goldman's book The Heirloom Tomato - good book but a little unhappy with all the seed suppliers not being able to find and the number of varieties she doesn't like - why include in the book? I also found she has a much different "taste" bud than me on quite a few varieties - anyone else experienced that? taste of the beholder again
Anyone know what her Phd is in? (Amy)
