Ooops! This book:

Seed to Seed: Seed Saving and Growing Techniques for Vegetable Gardeners 
(Paperback)
by Suzanne Ashworth, Kent Whealy

http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/1882424581/qid=1135298929/sr=8-2/ref=pd_bbs_2/103-8868058-5499849?n=507846&s=books&v=glance

Or just search it at your favorite vendor if the URL does not work. I found 
it pretty informative. It cleared up a lot of misinformation I had about the 
squash family. I have saved seed on a lot of different vegetables, and want 
to do more, so got this as a reference. I really like the information that 
it gives on pollination.
