Writer of The Times Diary, Michael Leapman, became a tenant of an
allotment next to Brixton Prison for 35p a year in 1974 when food
and energy shortages inspired many people to attempt
self-sufficiency. This book tells the story of the plot and the
author's first year of cultivating it, written with humour and wit
while providing a wealth of information for the would-be urban
horticulturalist. "It is splendid stuff and if your husband is a
gardening bore and you want to shut him up for an hour or three,
this is the answer.' The Guardian 'It makes fine bedside reading,
laced with plenty of anecdotes, good gardening information, plus an
Idle Gardener's Almanac.' Good Housekeeping
