This early work was built on an entirely new principle. Every aspect of the art and science of gardening is presented through the medium of pictures and diagrams, so as to enable the veriest novice to undertake with confidence the cultivation of fruit, flowers and vegetables, the care of poultry, bees and rabbits. It has been said that one good picture is worth ten thousand words; this book is proof of the truth of that statement. Containing a wealth of information and anecdote that is still useful and practical today this is a fascinating book that is thoroughly recommended for inclusion on the bookshelf of today's gardener.
