Hardcover. Etat : Fine. Peter Morter (illustrateur). ## A Cottage FLORA by David MacFadyen 1982 ## ## THIS BOOK: is classified as FINE. The 1982 edition. The cover is full colour. The book is spotless inside: as is the dust jacket, with no rips or tears, just some light shelf wear. ## ## A Cottage Flora recounts the traditions and practical advice derived from centuries of contact between the cottager and the flowers in his garden. How digitalis from the foxglove was an essential ingredient in witches' flying ointment, how the scream of an uprooted peony might kill a man, how the lavender became scented when they spread the swaddling clothes of the Holy Child to dry on a lavender bush. Rue, it appears, was strewn on prison floors to prevent gaol-fever (typhus) and is still carried in posies by judges at assizes. ## ## Peter Morter's delicate and highly accomplished watercolours and David MacFadyen's text, in the words of Arthur Marshall, 'instruct and delight all garden flower and herb lovers.' Helping to keep cottage flowers in their traditional place in our present-day gardens. ## ### INTERNATIONAL BUYERS: Please Note. FREE SHIPPING IS UK ONLY.
