they need to get growing: how to plan, design, and build a garden, how to create and maintain healthy

book—“Edibles from A to Z”—provides tips on planting, growing, and harvesting everything from
apples to zucchini.
But Sugar Snaps and Strawberries isn’t just a how-to book. Bellamy also inspires and encourages
beginning gardeners to just do it. Only have a balcony? You can grow salad greens in a container. Is
your yard the size of a postage stamp? With the right design you can build a manageable, productive

government has its hand in every important
environmental issue. And with the left and the right raucously disagreeing about whether the govern-
ment’s policies are for good or for evil, it’s impossible for a concerned citizen to know what to think.
How the Government Got in Your Backyard distils the science, the politics, and the unbiased, nonparti-

representing what the left says, what the right says, what the science is, and what the facts are, Gillman

uncover their own true and informed opinion.

Portland’s topography, where peaks of up to 1,000 feet rise

iarly as the West Hills. East of the Willamette in Northeast and
Southeast Portland, the changes in grade are more gradual, so
stairs are less common. Notable exceptions are Alameda Ridge,
an Ice Age deposit of gravels and cobbles, and two volcanic fea-

and extremely scenic. North Portland, a biker’s nirvana, is,
frankly, under-endowed in the stair department.
Many of Portland’s public staircases were built in the era be-

further from downtown. New neighborhoods were not viable,
from a real estate sales standpoint, unless they were connected to
town by a streetcar; as a result streetcar lines crisscrossed the city.
