Even in the net era, I do like sitting down and reading all those
descriptions.  I don't use it as much as a nursery locator, as I did the
first edition.  For that, I use Dave's Garden Watchdog and internet
searches.  But I'm afraid I'm enough of a Fruit Nut to Inventory the book
cover to cover...

Subject: [NAFEX] 4th edition fruit and nut inventory

I got mine a few days ago directly from SSE.  I have to say that I am  
less impressed in the Internet era with this book, so far Google has  
beat it every time.  For example I looked for Jerseycot and they  
showed Fedco was a source but looking at the Fedco website there is no  
Jerseycot there.  They also chose to list Southmeadow and I would call  
that a great disservice to the neophytes that buy this book and get  
added to the ever-growing list of Southmeadow "suckers".  They do have  
a good share of Nick Botner's items including some descriptions of odd  
varieties on his list which contain no descriptions there.
