| Jim Arbury, as the Superintendent of the fruit department at RHS Garden Wisley, is in an excellent position to gather and present this excellent and informative book on Pears. More than 50 pear cultivars are described in detail, with mouthwatering illustrations by Sally Pinhey, and there is also a succinct historical introduction to pear cultivation. For those who are interested from the practical viewpoint of wishing to plant one or more of the trees, the book also contains a short section on pear cultivation and the picking and storing of the fruit. One slightly annoying aspect in a book that is on the whole beautifully laid out, is that the pear illustrations are not next to the relevant text entries, so that a lot of page turning ...

| Having read a lot of european travel narratives; I thought it would be good to expand a bit the interest to the olive tree. Certainly ADM provides a good account of the desire to have olive trees in the gardens of wealthy expats (not just brits) - and indeed a good overview of the needs of the Olive Tree.
In the end however I was a little disappointed and felt that the book was more about ADM and his landscaping business; acquaintances and clients; and less about the beauty of the Olive Tree; and its mystical nature in European folklore. However some of his 'trips' do provide an indication of how people regard these ancient trees. The ending scene in Spain seems somehow cliched, although perhaps it really did happen. Overall: ...

| Well. Since its first edition, in April 1987, this endeavour has been growing, expanding, updating... Now there is a CD-Rom and the trimmings to go with it.
