Vegetable Gardening For Dummies

Why is "Vegetable Gardening for Dummies" so expensive - is it out of print? If so, will...?

...it be republished?
This book is one of the many from the popular "Dummies" how-to series. Charlie Nardozzi is the author.


It is indeed out of print. However, it's been replaced by the Gardening All-in-One book, which describes itself as "7 books in one". Its final sub-book is the vegetable gardening book, and was written by the same Charlie Nardozzi, probably taken from the same text as the Vegetable Gardening book.

I imagine there's enough common material on the basics of gardening that it doesn't really merit 7 separate books, which are more effort to produce, more valuable space on bookstore shelves, etc.

And at $20 at Amazon it's a lot cheaper and more complete than the old book.
