Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Seaside Planting of Trees and Shrubs All books nowadays have a preface. Let me give, as an introduction to this one, the reply made by the photographer (Mr. Frank Sutcliffe) to a friend who met him one evening when returning from the plantations at Mulgrave. On being asked, "What fields he had been making conquests in?" the answer was, "I have been taking some photographs for a gentleman who is going to do away with the 'north wind.'" This, the reader will understand, expresses my intention, to a certain extent, in a few words. It is an endeavour to show how the evils may be mitigated which are wrought upon vegetation of all kinds, not only by the north and east winds along the eastern coast, which are most destructive, but also upon every part of the shores of the British Isles, which are exposed to strong gales and storms.
