Other Non-Fiction Gregory, James J.H.: Cabbages And Cauliflowers: How To Grow Them. v2. 21 Jan 09

[Dr. Drib]

Dear MobileRead Downloaders:

I find it disturbing that in recent months members of this board have chosen to make fun of cabbages and cauliflowers – our lonely friends in the ground who need only water and manure to grow healthy and, (I hasten to add), wise in ways that we can barely begin to comprehend.

Rather than making fun of cabbages, we should embrace them and learn to understand their differences. True, they rarely speak to strangers, but this is only because strangers are loath to wander into a field full of manure.

There are many different varieties of cabbages and cauliflowers, just as there are varieties of differences between the way human beings look. The fact that we are ambulatory only adds to the degree of apprehension felt by cabbages and cauliflowers when they do spot clumsy humans trolling on the side of the road.

I urge you, my friends, to read this book and to learn more about our edible friends and the supreme act of sacrifice they undertake in their lonely existence before being summarily harvested for ingestion.

Like all the books I assemble on MobileRead, this too was assembled to reflect human intervention and artistic judgment.

I hope you enjoy it.

Don
