Entertaining story of the dogs in Monty Don's life, expecially Nigel the golden retriever. The backdrop is the evolution of his house and garden in Herefordshire from ruin and rough ground to extensive sophisticated multi-faceted garden, featured in Gardeners' World. Never having watched the TV programme it would have been nice to have a plan of the various gardens or an aerial view to get a beter sense of the layout. Also before and after photos would have been interesting. sin reseñas | añadir una reseña
THE SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLER ~ NIGEL - One of Britain's favourite dogs! 'CHARMING, AFFECTING AND OFTEN BEAUTIFUL' India Knight When Monty Don's golden retriever Nigel became the surprise star of BBC Gardeners' World inspiring huge interest, fan mail and his own social media accounts, Monty Don wanted to explore what makes us connect with animals quite so deeply. In many respects Nigel is a very ordinary dog; charming, handsome and obedient, as so many are. He is also a much loved family pet. He is also a star. By telling Nigel's story, Monty relates his relationships with the other special dogs in his life in a memoir of his dogs past and very much present. Witty, touching and life-affirming, Nigel: My family and other dogs is wonderfully heart-warming. Monty Don is a great writer coming out of the garden and into the hearts and homes of every dog lover in the UK. 'I have always had a dog, or dogs. I cannot imagine life without them. I am just as much a fan of Nigel as any besotted viewer. In the book I explore why we love dogs and what they mean to us emotionally and domestically. I look back on all the dogs in my life - all of which I have loved deeply and which have been an essential part of my life. So, this is the book of Nigel - but also the book of all our dogs in every British family and a celebration of the deep love we feel for them' Monty Don No se han encontrado descripciones de biblioteca. |

However, I really enjoyed watching two seasons of Big Dreams, Small Spaces, and got a kick out of how worshipful everyone on the show was of this gardening instructor, and I was charmed by this book for similar reasons: it vividly presents a life experience that is very different from my own, and it is supremely affable.
