 Rating:  - A first class comprehensive guide and a great readCreating a wild flower meadow is not a straight forward task. Many who try, fail. I would not have begun to attempt turning my quartre acre plot of rough pasture into a wild flower meadow without this book. The book is holding my hand all the way and continues to answer all my questions and allay any fears of failure. It is a book full of intelligent and experienced knowledge and makes a delightful read. Pam and Peter Lewis's work is an inspiration. I just hope that more people follow in their footsteps to help create and re-create areas of natural beauty and conservation. Be bold, be brave, be creative. Enthusiasm, passion and this book is all you need. Rating: - Excellent practical guide to making meadowsI recently went on a course at Sticky Wicket Garden where Pam Lewis lectures about how to make wildlfower meadows. Although we have two acres to play with I also wanted to develope part of the garden into a wildlfower meadow. This book is invaluable. It is so easy and readable - just what we needed to give us the confidence to start. I'd recommend it to anyone whether they have a small space in the garden or seventy acres! Our two acres is really coming along now. Rating:  - Wildflower Meadows - Natures Barometer.This is a good honest book! Where it is possibly short on technical content it nevertheless makes up for it in Pam Lewis's obvious enthusiasm for wildflower meadows, given her own management requirements. It is refreshing to view meadows, both active and potential ones, as seen through a 'new' pair of eyes. Often in the field of countryside management we get bogged down (pardon the pun) within our own sphere. As with so many of these books I find myself 'cherry picking' the information which suits me best with regards to end use location etc. In short an good book which should be read by both the countryside practitioner and lay person if for no other reason than to see an aspect of the countryside which we have carelessly almost lost if it was not for such enthusiasts.
