Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Cordon Training of Fruit Trees: Diagonal, Vertical, Spiral, Horizontal, Adapted to the Orchard-House and Open-Air Culture
This feeling is not altogether without its uses, and the author hastens to say, that this short work is the result of much leisure time, which an enforced idleness, the result of over-fatigue in the charge of a large parish, unexpectedly created.
Summer after summer, and winter after winter, was passed by him abroad. It was impossible to be unemployed, and thus he was enabled to observe the various modes of fruit culture practised in different countries.
