Compleat Squash = Rare Forms Rare Flavors?

Posted by winnjoe MB (My Page) on

I was looking on-line for 'Compleat Squash' (up to $96 Can at one site - no local bookstore has it in stock) and a search for it produced a list which included 'Rare Forms Rare Flavors' but when I clicked on them the cover was 'Compleat Squash'. Are they the same book? I also noticed that a local chain had Victor Schrager listed as the author of 'Melons for the Passionate Gardener' (and not Goldman - a search with her name produced nothing!). Joe

"up to $96 Can at one site"

Wow!!! That's expensive. I like gardening books and I like squash, but I don't think I could get $96 worth of squash info from that book.

FWIW, I got a copy just a few months ago for $25 from I think Amazon. My local bookstore, Borders has it for full price of $40. Try Abebooks, Powells and google: book search.
