Just a few paragraphs into this book gave me an idea I needed.  I caretake an elderly friend who is headed for surgery later this year.  Until then his pain level is too high to do many simple tasks, but this he can do.  Although the suggestion is to take him outside which will work later, as I start this off, I can set this up in my living where he sleeps and he can plant in the boxes I can carry to the garden area outside the window!  What a great idea for this difficult situation!This must be kept simple and Chapter 2 was written for me.  Step by step building of a raised garden.  Small boxes that outline a portion of the patio will give me disabled friend a sense of great accomplishment.  AND it will get a project done I've wanted managed for a few years.The author adds some excellent images that help me see what I want to accomplish easily.  There's a very good section on mistakes that answer questions you might have on changing some of the materials from lumber to hardware and simple to multi-layer boxes.This book teaches the HOW TO's when it comes to building your raised garden bed.  And it's easy to read and follow.  Good, clear, writing with step-by-step information.
