Summary: Explains why some men have deep passions for mowing
Comment: I agree that this book is not for tech. ref. but is more of a commentary on why men are so obsessed about lawns and mowing and having the "Perfect Lawn." Many people have asked me why I love lawns and grass and mowing. I could not answer that. He(Mr. Scultz) answered that question for me perfectly and eloquently. He draws a story in your mind and this is one book you won't put down until you are finished with it. I loved it and I read it all day long, And I am a landscaper!

Summary: Enjoyable history of the lawn, not a how-to-do book
Comment: Overall I liked the book, especially its coverage of the history of lawns. I guess we all assume lawns have always been there, which is decidedly not the case. On the other hand, as a how-to book it needs some work. The author gives numerous recommendations on lawn care but never mentions something as important as adding lime to bring up the pH when necessary. Good coffee table book, but I'll look for another how-to lawn care book.

Summary: Well done!
Comment: *A Man's Turf* is well put together and masterfully edited. I appreciate a book that not only looks good--most books published today do--but that is also well crafted. After all, it's the words that count, and all the words are there and in the proper sequence in this book. Thank you, Mr. Schultz, and thank you Clarkson Potter!
