Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from My Garden
IT is not proposed to submit excuses for this work. Nowadays everybody with a garden larger than a tablecloth rushes into print concerning it, and expects us to follow through the whole procession of the seasons on that particular and precious plot. We are confronted with each plant, grass-blade, and worm-cast we have the usual quotations from the poets; the usual round of successes during some little passing outburst of climate; the customary failures under our normal conditions of weather. And now I am going to do it all over again; because to remain silent, if you have a garden, is to be noto fious. That we may escape charges of eccentricity, therefore, we should all write garden books. In my case the time has come; the task can be evaded no more.
