A HISTORY OF 

 p GARDENING IN ENGLAND 

 BY THE HON. MRS. EVELYN CECIL 



(ALICIA AMHERST). 

 Third and Revised Edition. With Illustrations. I2S. net. 



Although an infinite number of works on gardening have been written since this book 

 first appeared in 1895, the ground which it covers has been left untouched. It has now 

 been carefully revised and fresh matter of interest added. The authoress traces the 

 whole history and development ot English gardening from the earliest times to the present 

 day. The plants which were introduced, the style of design and the cultural methods in 

 each successive century are described, and the literature of each period surveyed. The 

 information has been drawn from original sources and MS. records, both in public and 

 private archives. This work has held its place as the standard book on the subject, and 

 at the same time it is written with such a genuine love of gardens, and practical knowledge, 

 as well as historical accuracy, that it appeals to lovers of gardening in all its many branches.
