Graham Haley

I bought this on a lark, but I'm glad I did. There are a lot of useful ideas for cleaning a number of things with common household items and ingredients -- no need to buy fancy, brand-name cleaning products. And it all actually works! If you're looking to get away from chemicals, you should definitely look into this book. Granted, many of these hints you may be able to find on the internet; however, the convenience of having everything in one handy book cannot be denied. One caution: Haley's do-it-yourself routes do not always equate with non-toxic. There are some tips that include things like bleach or ammonia. Happily, there's usually alternative 'recipes' that don't use such products. Nevertheless, it's definitely a case of 'take what you like, leave what you don't.'… (mais)
