 THE CENTURY BOOK OF GARDENING. 



A comprehensive work for every lover of the garden. Edited 

 by E. T. COOK. With about 720 Illustrations. Specially- 

 designed Cover. Large 8vo, Gilt edges ? Art canvas. 



THE TIMKS. " No department of gardening is neglected, and the illustrations of famous 

 and beautiful gardens and of the many winsome achievements of the gardener's art are so 

 numerous and so attractive as to make the veriest cockney yearn to turn gardener at once. 

 If the 'Century Hook of Gardening' does not make alt who see it covet their neighbours' 

 gardens through sheer despair of ever making for themselves such gardens as are there 

 illustrated, it should, at any rate, inspire every one who desires to have a garden with an 

 ambition to make it as beautiful as he can."

 GARDENING FOR BEGINNERS. 



By E. T. COOK. A Handbook to the Garden. Superbly 

 Illustrated. Third and enlarged edition. Medium 8vo, 

 Buckram. 



GI.OUK. " It is quite a cyclop.-rdia in itself, and must surely contain everything that the 

 amateur gardener can need to know. A leading feature of the volume is the wealth of 

 illustration reproduced from photographs, and admirably printed." 



THE FRUIT GARDEN. 



A Manual embracing all the best varieties, forming a Complete 

 Guide for the Cultivation of British Emits, inside and out of 

 doors, by the most modern methods. By GEORGE BUNVARD 

 and OWEN THOMAS. 8vo, Buckram. 



WKSTEKN MORNING NKWS. "The present volume gives a comprehensive view of the 

 character and nature of fruit trees, their proper treatment, andaffords what is greatly wanted 

 by gardeners a choice selection of trees with valuable directions as to planting and 

 treatment. Such a work as this would be excellent in the village library, and would form a 

 valuable aid to those who would desire to instruct and aid the growers of fruit, whether large 

 or small. It would also be an acquisition to the library of everyone interested in gardening." 



TREES AND SHRUBS FOR ENGLISH 

 GARDENS. By E. T. COOK. 8vo. 



GARDENERS' CHRONICLK. A good book on trees and shrubs is a real want. Few books 

 are more often enquired for, and until now we have had a difficulty in replying to our 

 correspondents who have asked for information on the point. Mr. Cook's book will do good 

 service by calling attention to a somewhat neglected phase of gardening, while it will also 

 be of service to the amateur by putting before him a mass of information that he would 

 otherwise have to seek in a variety of other books. In these days of trashy gardening books, 

 it is a pleasure to come across one which bears the stamp of original observation, judicious 

 inference, and industrious research." 



ROSES FOR ENGLISH GARDENS. 



By GERTRUDE JEKYLL and EDWARD MAWLEY. 8vo, Buckram. 



DAILY CHRONICLE." No one can fail to be captured by Miss Jekyll's enthusiasm and fine 

 discrimination. One of the many signs found in this book of the right intelligence of the 

 rose is the feeling shown both in text and illustration for the ancestors of our garden species, 

 the beautiful single rose." 



WALL AND WATER GARDENS. 



By GERTRUDE JEKYLL. Illustrated. Demy 8vo, Buckram. 



THK TIMES. " He who will consent to follow Miss Jekyll aright will find that under her 

 guidance the old walls, th stone steps, the rockeries, the ponds or streamlets of his garden 

 will presently blossom with all kinds of flowers undreamed of, and become marvels of varied 

 foliage. More than a hundred photographs help to enforce Miss Jekyll's admirable lessons." 



MY GARDEN. By EDEN PHILLPOTTS. 



THK WORLD." It is a thoroughly practical book, addressed especially to those who, like 

 himself, have about an acre of flower garden and are willing and competent to help a 

 gardener to make it as rich, as harmonious, and as enduring as possible. His chapters on 

 Irises are particularly good."

 GOLF GREENS AND GREEN KEEPING. 



Edited by H. G. HUTCHINSON. 



PALL MALL GAZETTE. " Kach article is written by a man who knows his subject, and the 

 book is brightened by a number of most admirable and helpful photographs. It will be 

 useful to secretaries of links already established, and even more so to gentlemen who are 

 thinking of pegging out a new course; and we have no hesitation in saying that it should be 

 on the library shelves of every golf club pavilion in the kingdom as a valuable practical 

 treatise."

WESTMINSTER GAZETTE." Miss Jekyll's aim has been to write and compile a book on 

 lilies which shall tell amateurs in the plainest and simplest possible way how most easily 

 and successfully to grow the lily which, considering its great beauty, is not grown nearly 

 so much as might be expected."

 WHERE THE FOREST MURMURS. 



By FIONA MACLEOD. A Series of Nature Sketches. 



DAILY TKLEGRAPH. " There is everywhere a sense of the haunting mystery of the pro- 

 cesses of the world viewed through the eyes of a simple, unsophisticated nature, which, 

 from perpetual brooding upon the face of the deep, has caught something of the misty air 

 and broken music of the waves. Suggestion, rather than doctrine, is the atmosphere of the 

 work; and in a certain vague, but beautiful suggestiveness, the strange but eager-hearted 

 prose of this writer abounds to the very brim."

GLOBE. " The book is not only sure to please and edify every enthusiastic carnation 

 grower, but it will quicken interest in its subject among horticulturists who have hitherto 

 neglected this hardy and handsome child of many soils." 



THE BOOK OF BRITISH FERNS. 



By CHAS. T. DRUERY, F.L.S., V.M.H., President of the 

 British Pteridological Society. 



PILOT." Those interested in the culture of ferns should certainly get this book. Although 

 Mr. Dniery writes in a popular style, those who look for scientific accuracy will not be 

 disappointed. The culture and propagation of ferns is first given, while the chief.part of the 

 book consists of lists of ferns suitable for different localities, including rooms and frames, 

 and descriptions of the various families."
