A Simple Treasure.. 23 Aug 2011
By coracle
Format:Paperback
I had been researching material on the history of gardening and came across this title. The book itself is nicely presented, it has an attractive cover and comes at a reasonable price. The real pleasure in this book comes with the beautiful woodcut illustrations and the original descriptions. My research is ongoing but I keep coming back to this one for the joy of reading through the text. My only regret is that it is not hardback !
