In the Little Book Room of the Herb House: 
A Few of the Books that May Be Purchased . 
By Visit or Mail. 
A well-chosen collection of interesting and helpful books for Herb 
Gardens and General Gardening. New books as well as favorite volumes 
long depended on for garden information and inspiration. Then, too, 
those books, no matter whether they may be novels, essays or poetry, 
which bring to us poignantly the spirit of gardens or the atmosphere of 
the countryside. Such writings, for example, as those of Mary Webb. 
Also a corner of imaginative Children’s Books (not here listed) as well 
as Cookery Books. There are also included certain titles, old Herbals, 
etc., long out of print, which are fun to discover after long searching. 
All books are priced at the publisher’s List Price except those volumes 
now rare or imported.
