acheivable & realistic ideas.

whilst john seymours book self sufficiency is good in its own right it leans towards more of a rural location and dedication to growing your own produce.
where as the hamilton brothers have created a guide where you can restrict your outgoings or shopping with your own produce and thrifty ideas,definately a book that wont be read once then think that would be nice to be able to do and put on the shelf for a year.

What a Beauty

The operative word with this lovely book is 'ISH'
It invites you to do what you can, when you can, follow ideas and guides without feeling like you're not entirely 'with the programme'.
Ideas for frugality and re-use as well as superb gardening tips and information (be it window ledge, back yard or allotment)
A coffee table book? (Let's face it you will refer to it so often that it won't get put back on the shelf) that you won't ever be ashamed of.

Open minds are free too

Just saw one of the authors interviewed on BBC's Working Lunch... now, I'm your typical middle-class suburban 30-something and not really in the Hamilton's target market but I was so incensed by the trivial nit-picking of the BBC presenter that I've just come and ordered your book by way of weird capitalist protest. When not forced to justify the 'crazy' idea of growing your own food, your ideas were simple and sensible and I wish you and this book the best of luck. What a shame that the editor of Working Lunch chose to adopt such a silly anti grow-your-own position. Personally, I'm now looking forward to growing a bit of corn and some onions. So, umm, there!

Excellent

It's hard to praise this book enough. Easy to read, well laid out, full of ideas that not only can you do, but you also want to do. Andy and Dave Hamilton have successfully found a way to make going green accessible without preaching, or patronising or just getting boring.

For an idea of their style, go to their self sufficient-ish website. The book has the same relaxed feel to it.

Well done Andy & Dave Hamilton!
