winter_harvest_handbookSo after Matt & Dave’s glowing reviews, I finally got ahold of a copy of Eliot Coleman’s Winter Harvest Handbook and have this morning already devoured half of it. Really a remarkable, accessible work that I recommend to everyone!

I already want to know even more about the history of it so I did a little research based on the bibliography and found a few things that might be of interest:

“The Profitable culture of vegetables for market gardeners” by Thomas Smith

“Fields, factories and workshops: or, Industry combined with agriculture” by Petri Aleks Kropotkin

“Manuel pratique de la culture maraichère de Paris” by J. G. Moreau, J. J. Daverne (Français)
