Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Confidences of an Amateur Gardner
The spade and axe triumphed in the end. An acre or so of nice brown upturned soil, a grass plot or two, some neat shrubberies, several dignified old trees - among which a mulberry, a walnut, and a weeping willow are the most conspicuous - the whole intersected with neatly-brushed gravel paths, have emerged from the chaos; all sweet and clean, swept and garnished, and ready for a new population of plants and ?owers.
