Alaska Gardening Guide: Vol. 1

Roberts grew up on an Alaskan farm and later, after recovering from the agricultural life, became interested in gardening on her own. This how-to book reveals the secrets of growing Alaska vegetables for northern climates. It includes planting basics for the beginning gardener, specific problems encountered in the various areas in Alaska (like cold soil, premature bolting to seed, or heavy precipitation), and techniques and tips for raising particular vegetables.
