In this new book Alan Wilson explores the beauty and diversity of over 400
potato varieties with the aim to get us all to grow eat and understand
this much loved vegetable. Issues of concern to organic gardeners such
as the biology of the potato, pest diseases as well as many topical
subjects affecting the potato are all covered. The Alan Wilson
top 100 potato varieties dominates the book but as Alan clearly says any
review of new cultivars is only the start. What is your top 100? From
King Edward to Sunrise and back in time to Pink Fir Apple and the
coloured flesh varieties they are all here. The People's Potatoes, Alan Wilson Special chapter by Dr Simon Bowen Paintings by Caroline Bletsis£20 rrp - order from Stroud Bookshop.
