Abstract
THE new edition of this book follows on the lines laid down by its author in the original work. For conciseness and lucidity in pocket-book form, it would be hard to improve upon. Its data and practical details can be fully relied upon and the wealth of information crowded into its 418 pages covers the whole of the operations of any up-to-date garden. In this respect the author has a genius for imparting—in tabloid form—his wide knowledge to others.
