Item Number: 113221 Title: The Making of the English Gardener [Plants, Books and Inspiration, 1550-1660] Author: Willes, Margaret Price: Not Available ISBN: 9780300163827 Description: New Haven: Yale University Press, 2011. 24cm,. hardcover, 299pp., 79 b&w, XXII color illus. Publisher's summary : In the century between the accession of Elizabeth I and the restoration of Charles II, a horticultural revolution took place in England, making it a leading player in the European horticultural game. Ideas were exchanged across networks of gardeners, botanists, scholars, and courtiers, and the burgeoning vernacular book trade spread this new knowledge still further— reaching even the growing number of gardeners furnishing their more modest plots across the verdant nation and its young colonies in the Americas.
