Crown 8vo 5/- net Cloth
“Oh, Happy Garden, whose seclusion deep
Hath been so friendly to industrious hours.”
--_Wordsworth._
An anthology from the works of great authors giving expression to their
appreciation and love for the gardens which in so many cases helped
to inspire their work. The passages are so arranged in the form of
a journal giving an extract in prose or verse for every day in the
year. A feature of the work is delightful illustrations in colour by
Miss Ellen Warrington, whose garden pictures have attained a wide and
well-merited reputation. The book is a welcome addition to the library
of the Garden, and will prove a most appropriate gift to Garden Lovers.
