When Monty Don's golden retriever, Nigel, became the surprise star of BBC's Gardeners' World, inspiring huge interest, fan mail and even his own social media accounts, Monty Don wanted to explore what makes us connect with animals quite so deeply. In many respects Nigel is a very ordinary dog - charming, handsome and obedient, as so many are. He is also a much loved family pet. He is also a star. By telling Nigel's story, Monty relates his relationships with other special dogs in his life in a memoir of his dogs past and very much present.

Compared to Charles' other books, this is more about no dig, eliminating weeds, garden layout, compost making, and using compost. There is also a history of no-dig vegetable gardening in the last 100 years. I want listeners to understand the context and the reasons why no dig has not been much valued until recently, and why it is now. This audiobook has 18 sections, covering the key methods and wonderful results of no dig, from starting with weeds to sowing and planting straightaway, and cropping soon after.

Story
Is bourbon the quintessential American liquor? Bourbon is not just alcohol - the amber-colored drink is deeply ingrained in American culture and tangled in American history. From the early days of raw corn liquor to the myriad distilleries that have proliferated around the country today, bourbon is a symbol of the United States. This course traces bourbon's entire history, from the 1700s, with Irish, Scottish, and French settlers setting up stills and making distilled spirits in the New World, through today's booming resurgence.

We live in a world of seeds. From our morning toast to the cotton in our clothes, they are quite literally the stuff and staff of life, supporting diets, economies, and civilizations around the globe. Just as the search for nutmeg and the humble peppercorn drove the Age of Discovery, so did coffee beans help fuel the Enlightenment and cottonseed help spark the Industrial Revolution. And from the fall of Rome to the Arab Spring, the fate of nations continues to hinge on the seeds of a Middle Eastern grass known as wheat.

How could flowers, of all things, become such objects of desire that they can drive men to financial ruin?

One of my new favorite books.
I loved this book, and I have enjoyed listening to it as I putter around in the garden. Monty Don is a fantastic author, and he writes about the garden and the natural world in a way that is incredibly appealing. And also very down to earth, and lacks much of the garden snob stuff I feel I’ve come across in other books. Each page is clearly suffused with his love of plants, planting and gardening and he’s included a wealth of information about each season and many different types of plants in this love poem to the garden.

Narrator whispers end of sentences. It's a manual.
The narrator constantly trails off the volume of his sentences, which is frustrating to adjust to. This reads more like a reference manual than an audio book. There are almost no anecdotes or stories. My takeaways were some gardening pointers. I may invest in the paperback version as I grow my garden, or not.
