Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Book of the Rose
IT seems right to make some sort of apology, as most of my predecessors have done, for putting forth another Rose-book when there are already so many; but per haps it is not really required, as the columns devoted to the subject every week in horticultural literature show that there is ever something fresh to be said on the different matters connected with the Rose.
