I just glanced up at the link for books; and yesterday spent a couple hours in a Barnes & Noble trying to figure out what's a good book for gardening. I realize there's many reference books and landscaping books and vegetable gardening books. I live in the desert and other than 3 live trees on the property, I'm out here in dirt and sand.

Basically a blank slate to work with and am wondering what are some good books to consider for "gardening" . I'm also interested in a pond, and I realize there's a special forum for that that I read, but just don't know what to get for a book on ideas and what would survive out here. Any ideas?
