Walter Nicol (1769-1811) was a Scottish garden and hothouse designer. Edward Sang (1771-1862) was a nurseryman. "This publication may be ranked with thos which blend the useful with the amusing; for, what can be more obviously useful than a proper knowledge of the means of promoting the planting of trees, encouraging their growth, and attendingto the progress of the vegetable system in the aggregate; or more amusing than observing the gradual expansion of the seed, the trunk, the bud, the blossom, and the fruit?" - Gentleman's Magazine and Historical Review. Condition: Very good. Bumped with some shelfwear. There is an ink inscription on the front pastedown and half title. Foxing to the first and last few pages with the very occasional scattered foxing throughout.

Chatwin Books, 2021. First Edition. Trade Paperback. New. New! 'I know from my own experience that an evening spent tending my garden, after another incomprehensible day, brings a strength and calmness that no other activity can match. Is it the qualities associated with gardening, such as nurturing and the hard work of hands and heart, that are deficient in our culture? Much good writing has been done about the garden as a special place.' Madeleine Wilde's woodland garden on the south slope of Seattle's Queen Anne Hill was more than a "special place." It was her Sanctuary, her prism through which she explored the world and accomplished "much good writing." For two decades, starting in the early 1990s, Madeleine's "Notes from the Garden" delighted readers of the Queen Anne & Magnolia News in Seattle. Here, in luminous prose, is the best of her work from those years, ranging from hands-on advice for gardeners and would-be gardeners to poetically charged, often wry, insights into life in the tradition…

"Honest and reliable service - every book hand-packaged with care."
The Sakuteiki, or "Records of Garden Making," was written nearly 1000 years ago, making it the oldest work on Japanese gardening; in fact, the oldest book on gardening in the world! In this edition of the Sakuteiki, the authors provide both an English-language translation of this classic work; and an introduction to the cultural and historical context that led to the development of Japanese gardening. A Japanese court noble wrote the Sakuteiki during the Heian period (794-1184). During this critical era in Japanese history cultural influences on poetry, clothing-and gardening-that had been imported from China and Korea over the previous centuries were reexamined and reinterpreted into their unique Japanese forms. The Sakuteiki contains the first systematic record of this new… Leer más
