An evening with Monty Don.
Down to Earth is a book of Monty Don's considerable experience presented in his usual relaxed yet enthusiastic style. if you're a fan of Gardner's World, or his many travelogues you are sure to enjoy this.
The book is split between advise and a monthly run through of his gardening year.
There's nothing here that hasn't been covered before, however it's delivered beautifully, with such charm, that you can't help but be enthused. Highly recommended.

Practical, delightful and informative
I can see myself re-listening to this seasonally. Even as a fairly practiced gardener it helped me consider things and will influence me. And there were a lot of “ahhh” lightbulb moments. I do enjoy Monty’s unhurried and confident reading too,

Wonderful book for novice gardeners
Relaxing, reassuring and full of wisdom. I feel I have learned a lot that I can put into practice; not least regarding my mindset when I’m in the garden.

A very enjoyable audiobook
This is my first audiobook and have to say I thoroughly enjoyed it. It was very informative as you'd expect from Monty Don and passed the time away nicely, it was a very easy listen.
