Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Common Sense Gardens How to Plan and Plant Them
In the course of time the furniture of our fore fathers went out of fashion and was superseded by many different styles more or less fantastic, and generally hideous, yet after a hundred years or more we find the chairs of Chippendale and the mirrors and tables of Hepplewhite just as beautiful as on the day they were made, and just as effective and dignified in a new house as in an old one, because they had merit, because brains and skill and time were given to their making.
