    Description

    Illustrated, Original Binding, Publishers' Original Binding

    Third impression. Complete in two volumes.

    Written by Reginald Farrer, the highly regarded plant collector and author. Building his first rock garden aged 14, Farrer wrote an incredibly successful volume titled 'My Rock Garden' which saw numerous reprints. After writing several gardening works, Farrer went on to write 'The English Rock-Garden' in two volumes. This work was also successful, and saw several impressions.

    Profusely illustrated and complete in both volumes, this definitive work offers a thorough exploration of the plants and designs that define the English rock garden.

    Condition

    In the publisher's original green cloth binding. Externally, smart. Slight rubbing and bumping to extremities, more so to head and tail of spine, resulting in one or two very small closed tears. The odd minor handling mark to boards. Bookplate of Olga Casdagli to front paste down. Offsetting to endpapers. Internally, generally firmly bound. hinges slightly strained in places, but firm. Pages bright and clean, if slightly age toned with one or two spots.

    Very Good
