Here ends My Garden of Dreams, the second in a 

 cycle of three Books that have for a central theme 

 "the garden as nature under cultivation and 

 discipline" and in which the garden is treated as 

 a symbol of spiritual and social evolution, the 

 whole containing a philosophy of life. The first 

 Book of the cycle is The Voice of the Garden, 

 published in 1912 by the publishers of this Book. 

 The third Book of the cycle is in preparation and 

 will be named Garden Philosophy. My Garden 

 of Dreams (like the others of the cycle) was writ- 

 ten by Abram Linwood Urban. Illustrated by 

 half-tones from photographs and decorated by 

 Grace Lillian Urban, the author's daughter, the 

 whole was done into a Book for Thomas Meehan 

 & Sons, of Germantown, Pennsylvania, whose 

 large nurseries, founded in 1854 by the late Pro- 

 fessor Thomas Meehan, have so greatly contrib- 

 uted to the growth in the American people of that 

 love of gardens for which the book speaks. The 

 typography and binding were designed and super- 

 vised by the Service Bureau of the Wm. F. Fell 

 Company, who printed the Book, the whole being 

 done and completed in the City of Philadelphia, 

 in the month of October and the year of Our 

 Lord Nineteen Hundred and Thirteen.
