Synopsis
Excerpt from Come Into the Garden
IT is appropriate to explain that in a book of this character there may be an appearance of inconsistency to the layman in the spelling of plant names. The nomenclature of Bailey's Encyclopcedia of Horticulture has been followed, however, with the exception of the capitaliza tion of the names when they appear apart from their botanical components. Personally, the author believes a page presents a more agree able appearance to the eye when the names of such plants as may be referred to thereon are not treated as proper names; and that it may be read with greater facility and a less disturbed sense of values as a consequence. For those desiring to pursue further reading or study along the lines of any particular chapter, a bibliog raphy of standard works dealing with each chap ter subject will be found at the back of the book, just before the Index.

Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book, a historical overview of gardening, argues the profound importance of gardening to human civilization. The author claims that the genesis of this essential human practice lies in man's first attempts to cultivate plants and that the cultivation of the garden has since been the measure of humanity's advancement. Gardening, it is argued, has been not only a life-sustaining practice, it has also been a driver of art, culture, and beauty in human society. The author unpacks these ideas, providing the reader with a wealth of information on the relationship between gardening and civilization, as well as a host of insights into how a garden may best be used to augment personal life. In the end, the author effectively argues for the transformative, even spiritual power of gardening and offers a convincing case for its continued relevance in our time. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
