Description

This absorbing early work is a comprehensive look at the country housewife's work and provides a fascinating glimpse at a bygone age. Containing a wealth of information and anecdote much of which is still useful and practical to today's gardener or smallholder. Contents Include: The Vegetable Garden; The Fruit Garden; Home-Made Wines and Beverages; The Flower Garden; Flowering Trees and Shrubs; The Rose Garden; The Rock Garden; The Herb Garden; Poultry, Duck and Rabbit Keeping; The Apiary; Manures and Composts; Marketing; Hints for Housewife and Gardener; and Index. Many of the earliest books, particularly those dating back to the 1900s and before, are now extremely scarce and increasingly expensive. We are republishing these classic works in affordable, high quality, modern editions, using the original text and artwork.
