Chatting Books Online Day 123. Today's recommended book is Bringing Nature Home by Douglas W. Tallamy. The sub-title of this book is "How you can sustain wildlife with Native Plants" and I think that is a great way to summarize the book. Mr. Tallamy, who you may have heard speak when he was in St Francisville for the Southern Garden Symposium a couple of years ago, explains how you can use native plants to develop an eco-system that will attract insects and wildlife to your yard that will make your yard more sustainable without so much chemical interference by "bringing nature home" to your yard. With full color pictures to help you identify the insects and plants this book is an excellent handbook as they say for anyone that has a backyard. Paperback 359 pages, $19.95 a copy - and I even have a couple of signed copies currently in stock (same price).
