  Delving into the diaries, letters, casual accounts, fiction, poetry, and drama of the last six centuries, David Wheeler has produced a glorious collection of writing connected only by a love of that most potent of words -- gardening . From the underling gardener of an autocratic ladyship, to a hilarious egg-shaped topiarist; from celebrated gardeners, including Vita Sackville-West, Rosemary Verey, and Gertrude Jekyll, to enthusiastic amateurs who share their love of horticulture, The Penguin Book of Garden Writing takes us, most enchantingly, through the gardening year.
