The $64.00 Tomato
How One Man Nearly Lost His Sanity, Spent a Fortune, and Endured an Existential Crisis in the Quest for the Perfect Garden.

By William Alexander

..."It wasn't perfect, it wasn't exactly what we'd dreamed o, but as Anne and I stood overlooking it, champagne in hand, it appeared magnificent, enticing, beckoning. It seemed to say, "Come, bring me your seeds and water, and I will reward you." And it would. And also humble me, and teach me, and become a place of solace, a battleground, a source of pride, a source of frustration, a time sink, a respite."
