    Synopsis
    Tomatoes have always been far and away the most popular plant in the vegetable garden, and today the class act among tomatoes is the heirloom varieties--those vegetables with a past that go back generations, their seeds preserved and passed down among families, friends, and dedicated farmers. And no one knows heirloom tomatoes like Carolyn Male, a biologist who's grown more than a thousand varieties in the last 14 years. Following the lush and practical format of 100 English Roses for the American Garden (with 57,000 copies in print), 100 Heirloom Tomatoes is a thorough how-to and a stunningly photographed field guide. It covers every facet of growing heirlooms, from selecting the right varieties for your zone and type of garden to timing and planting of seeds, transplanting, hardening off, staking vs. caging, fertilizing, and more. There's a section on how to become a seed saver and even how to do crosses that will lead to creating your own heirlooms. Then comes the tasty part: Aunt Ginny's Purple and Amish Paste, Redfield Beauty, Green Zebra, Georgia Streak and the Santa Clara Canner. Fluted, scalloped, flattened, or lobed--white, pink, red, orange, gold, or chocolate brown--sweet to tart, mild to strong, perfumed and fruity to dark and smoky--now these are tomatoes with real character., Preserved by families, collected by seed savers, passed around among farmers, heirloom tomatoes are now being sought out by more and more home gardeners as an alternative to the bland sameness of commercial hybrids. And happily, these growers are discovering that heirlooms are not only vastly more flavorful, but are just as hardy and easy to cultivate as the hybrids. Dr. Carolyn J. Male, who has raised more than a thousand heirloom tomatoes, here presents 100 consistently top-performing varieties for North American gardeners. There are red tomatoes, yellow tomatoes, green, orange, purple, and even black tomatoes--like Black from Tula, with green shoulders and a dusky rose-black coloring. There are cherry tomatoes, too--try Martino's Roma, a paste with spectacular yield and built-in tolerance of blossom end rot. For every gardener, no matter how experienced, here's everything you need to know to grow and harvest tomatoes with real taste.

      100 Heirloom Tomatoes for The Home Garden

      Although I am sceptical of buying books that I can't personally open prior to buying...the reviews for this book were so good that I decided to gamble. I am glad I did. The book is an excellent reference. Well written by an author with years of experience in growing heirloom tomatoes. Lots of good information on the tomato varities that are included as well as some good culture tips. Outstanding photos. If a person is interested in heirloom tomatoes this is an excellent book to add to one's library.

      100 Heirloom Tomatoes for the American Garden

      I thought it was a very informative book. I liked the way it gave helpful information on selecting seed for you area to planting, fertlizing and staking. I especially enjoyed the color photos so you could see what the tomatoes would look like, complete with splits, dings and scabs. There was no false advertizing in those photos! I also liked that it included a excellent discription including production rates, too bad it was only for 100 tomatoes, I would like to see volumn two. The only thing I disliked about the book was its price. I have been searching for this book for a year on Ebay and ABE books and have been shocked at what it goes for, up to $50.00! I was glad to finally find one in my price range. I have been growing and selling Heirloom tomatoes for years and when I saw it I knew ...
