From Library Journal: This volume by an experienced water gardener focuses strictly on maintaining a garden pond by troubleshooting or preventing problems that
may occur to the structure, plants, or fish. Although it is meant to prevent problems for the novice pond builder, a beginner would also need to use a general work on garden pools such as Ken Druse's
Burpee Water Gardening (Prentice Hall, 1993) since Nash's work offers no general overview of pond building. Instead, it plunges in on page one with specifics on possible siting problems and continues
with chapters of advice on pumps, water quality and filtration, how to maintain water plants and fish, and how to deal with unwanted pests. A list of suppliers for the specialized equipment and plants
would have been helpful. For larger collections.-Molly Newling, Piscataway P.L., N.J.

From The Publisher: "Nash and Hughes provide
detailed instructions on how to construct waterfalls, fountains, pools, and streams of various sizes, some of which require a large lot and others only a very small space. There is information on basic
installation, pump selection, plumbing, fountain accessories and maintenance, and all materials and tools required. An appendix lists 37 plants suitable for stream gardens, giving their growth habits,
flowering times, and hardiness."--Booklist
