Personal Review: Deer-Resistant Landscaping: Proven Advice
and Strategies for Outwitting Deer and 20 Other Pesky Mammals
by Neil Soderstrom
In _Deer-Resistant Landscaping_, Neil Soderstrom has written much more
than a how-to book about "Proven Advice and Strategies for Outwitting
Deer and 20 Other Pesky Mammals," as his subtitle would suggest. He
has provided a readable narrative spiced with over 400 of his photographs
plus a great many more taken by his friends Lennie and Ushi Rue and
others. The result is a feast for the eyes as well as a source of information
for those seeking to protect their yards and gardens. Personal and other
anecdotes enliven the antidotes against mammals ranging from armadillos
and peccaries to voles and woodchucks. Chapter 23, really an appendix,
not only profiles but also portrays 197 of the more than 1,000 deer-
resistant plants discussed in the book, all in beautiful, living color. A
multitude of maps shows which parts of the United States are home to the
various varmints discussed in the narrative. Anyone the least bit disturbed
by (or simply interested in) the animals discussed in this book will find it a
great bargain at $23.95 US as well as a valuable source of information. (In
the interest of self-disclosure, I should point out that I have called Neil a
friend for more than 35 years and had a minuscule role in helping him with
his research on pocket gophers, which he overgenerously recognized on
pp. xi, 95, and 100, even going so far as to include a photograph of me
and my wife on p. xii.)
