Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Old Christmas and Bracebridge Hall: From the Sketch-Book of Washington Irving It is calculated by its Indexes to serve both as a Gardener´s Kalendar and Gardener´s Dictionary; it contains a copious Introduction to Botany; engraved plans and elevations of all manner of hot-houses, ornamental buildings, kitchen gardens, flower gardens, shrubberies, pleasure grounds, and parks; of many curious fruits and flowers; of all the garden implements, utensils, and machines. Besides the culinary, fruit, and flower gardening, and the laying out of grounds, it treats of trees, planting, forest management, nurseries, market gardens, and botanic gardens; of gardener´s societies, and lodges; of the duties of head gardeners in every situation and servitude, from that of the tradesman´s town garden, of a few poles in extent, to the first rate gardens of the nobility, including public and royal gardens; it treats of the improvement of the taste of the patrons and employers of gardeners; of the education of young gardeners, and the general conduct of a gardener´s life: in short it is of itself a gardener´s library, and contains more matter than the four folio volumes of Miller´s Dictionary. No work is so well fitted for being presented by a gentleman to his head gardener, or by a head gardener to his deserving apprentice.
