I shall have to become an amazon affiliate in hopes of my reviews garnering a following.
Homegrown & Handmade by Deborah Niemann... so, remember Ronald Niedermann, Lisbeth's halfbrother? This book, too, is heavyhanded, leadfooted, and throws about the broadest haymakers of ideas that it overwhelms a person without even giving a person enough information to do any of the things it suggests. It's nambypamby, wishywashy, and tells you that you'll learn by experimenting... but never gives you a hypothesis on which to base said experimenting. Way better overviews exist; I'll find the titles and mention them soon.
Addendum: even though I panned Backyard Homestead, at least the yield charts were useful. No such redeeming qualities to be found in this epic failure of a copycat.
