Editorial Reviews
"The Prairie Water Garden takes the gardener step-by-step through constructing formal and informal ponds, streams, waterfalls and fountains. This do-it-yourself approach is done in a well-written manner with easy to follow directions and good accompanying diagrams and photos."
— Edmonton Journal
"A colorful and informative guide to water gardening under prairie conditions. . . . It is certainly the most comprehensive coverage of [water garden design] I've seen in any water gardening book."
— Gardener
"A must for those with a pond or the desire for one."
