Reviews (click here for full review by local newspaper)
Alaska Gardening Guide is a thorough review of vegetable gardening in Alaska and contains information for the novice as well as the experienced gardener. Ann draws on the latest research at the University of Alaska as well as time-tested experience of Alaska gardeners to provide a wealth of information not found in any other reference. This book is well worth adding to the very short list of Alaska gardening references.
 Patricia Holloway, Associate Professor of Horticulture, UAF

“information for the novice as well as the experienced gardener”

Ann has not written a gardening guide, but a complete encyclopedia on gardening.
Virgil Severns, Agricultural Extension Agent, ret.

"A complete encyclopedia on gardening."

Alaska Gardening Guide is an excellent book full of good ideas with an extensive index to help you find them when you need them.
Diana Griffin, Alaskan gardener.

"with an extensive index"
The best measure of a gardening book is its usefulness to the home enthusiast, and by that standard Alaska Gardening Guide is superior. Exhaustive, plain spoken and generously illustrated, it will soon become THE definitive and indispensable reference guide to every Alaskan gardener. What a wonderful piece of work—I am filled with envy that I did not write it!
Linden Staciokas, Garden author and columnist for the Fairbanks Daily News-Miner.

“Exhaustive, plain spoken and generously illustrated, it will soon become THE definitive and indispensable reference guide to every Alaskan gardener.”

Fairbanks author and gardener Ann Roberts has a terrific new book on vegetable gardening in Alaska.
