I've often wondered why more people didn't use fruit bearing plants to landscape their yards. Here's a copiously illustrated book that clearly shows how to get the double benefit of beauty and edible fruit from your plants. Lee Reich tells you which plants are both ornamental and delicious and rates them on ease of growing. Reich is also the author of Weedless Gardening which I also highly recommend.

I've read nearly all of Alan Furst's novels and I think this is my favorite. The Foreign Correspondent is a book of intrigue set in Europe on the eve of WWII. Richly atmospheric and filled with period detail, this book, like all of Furst's novels, realistically evokes the look and feel of Europe during the fascist ascendancy. A terrific read that captures the moral dilemmas and conflicted loyalties of decent men and woman, as well as those with other agendas.
