This practical book explains the geological and economic reasons behind the water shortage, and ways to combat it, suggesting how natural water (groundwater as well as rain) can be stored and used for labour-free irrigation. An extensive alphabetical list of drought-resistant plants and trees is provided, and the author also offers advice on garden design, the vegetable garden and wildlife.
