Has anyone read Brenda Cole's book on Shade Gardening?

Ottawa, ON(Zone 5a)

Has anyone read or looked at this book? I'm ordering a computer book from Chapters and need another book to get free shipping. Thought this might be worthwhile. Brenda is in the Ottawa area; so I expect the advice offered will be applicable to Canada, but since there were no reviews offered, I'd like to hear what other people think.

Thanks,

I just looked it up and on Chapters it says its unavailable to order? I looked on Amazon.ca, and same thing tho it is available from private sellers there..

having said that, it looks like a great book!! Let us know if you order it.

I just had a look on ebay and found it if you can't get it from Chapters and are still interested...

Didn't notice that it was unavailable this morning - but I guess I should have. I printed out the page and there it is. The main objective here was to order ANOTHER book from Chapters to have my total high enough to avoid shipping fees. I have another in mind, but may still keep that one in mind for the future.
I could order through other sources, but I managed to successfully transfer the content of my Christmas gift card to my on-line Chapter account and want to use it up. The main book that I'm after is nearly $10 less expensive on-line than in the store (if the store has it, which mine didn't). But if I spend the largest part of that in shipping fees ...

I'll have to look it up - don't remember and I recycled the print out already. I already have the Color Encyclopedia. Remind me tomorrow and i'll look it up.

Yeah, I figured you were trying to order something from Chapters to get the free shipping (as per your post-and I do the same thing!) But I was just trying to be helpful =)
