Book excerpt: Excerpt from Gardens Old and New, Vol. 1: The Country House and Its Garden Environment But sculpture is as much in place in the landscape as in the formal garden, and is even more necessary in order to replace the features of a more strongly marked style, as the creators of such gardens quickly recognised. Yet there is, perhaps, no more difficult thing than to use garden sculpture well. It should occupy the right place, or none at all, and only the judicious eye can direct the choice. This is especially true of the human figure, for the urn and vase are sometimes almost necessary upon the terrace or by the garden stair. A peculiarly happy effect, full of suggestion in its character, is that of the ascent to the upper lawn at Clifton, which we illustrate here.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Book of the Home Garden The following pages were originally written for small children; as such they appeared in the Coun try Gentleman under the title The Child's Gar den. Gardening is such a big problem I was anxious to make it understandable to the begin ner's mind. Since our entrance into the World's War the knowledge of the Vital importance of food pro duction has led me to put these chapters into book form for children older grown. The fact that ﬂowers occupy some of the space may help to cheer us as we work at the big task of increasing the world's food supply. The wonderful work the Boy Scouts of America are doing to help increase this supply, has, more than any other cause, led me to rewrite these chap ters. Under the' wonderful leadership of my life partner, the Chief Grub Scout, I am sure they will achieve yet greater results.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Gardens for Small Country Houses After the publication of the first and second editions of this book kindly readers indicated many points on which they thought our advice to the makers of gardens could usefully be expanded, and we gladly met their wishes. Perhaps we may. without offence, be pleased that during the currency of the third edition few such suggestions came to us. So it happens that this fourth edition is little different from the third hut since the latter appeared the times have changed greatly. Without seeking to fill the role of the gloomy prophet, we cannot escape the belief that the changes in social life and habit, which are the mark of our economic troubles, are striking at the maintenance of great gardens, as of great houses, in this pleasant land. But if those who have built up. kept, and loved so well their spacious gardens must needs be content with smaller houses, and if, as seems likely, the wider distribution of wealth will lead to-morrow to the creation of many more small country houses, the art of making gardens for such houses will increase in importance. If this prove true, we hope our work will still achieve some measure of usefulness, and help us, in Dr. Johnson's phrase. "to keep our friendship in repair" with many unknown and too appreciative readers. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

They record, therefore, not afterthoughts, but immediate impressions and such moods of mind, whether transient or permanent, as were actually induced by the scenes portrayed. As will be observed, the greater part of them have reference to a garden situated in an ancient parish on the south-eastern side of Lancashire. Although this parish or township is already threatened on one of its borders by the fast-approaching outworks of a great city, it retains some nooks of sylvan greenness, and a few places where rural quiet and comparative seclusion still remain.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Book of the Cottage Garden Scattered throughout the length and breadth of Eng land, facmg dusty roadsides, hidden among the Shadows of quiet lanes, clinging to the Slopes of seaworn cliffs, skirting golden commons, are cottage gardens innumer able. Rarely are they ugly often they are pictures of sweetest charm and complete artistic fulfilment. Here is no straining after effect, no surrender to the dictates of passing fashion, no meaningless attempt to introduce into an environment utterly foreign to them, styles and mannerisms borrowed from other countries. Here we Shall seek in vain the Statuary and vases which, according so admirably with the Stately dignity of those memory haunted gardens of Italy, distort and make hideous the expensive gardens which certain architects have planned for English parvenus. Motives of economy, if not those of better feeling, have excluded from our wayside gardens the varnished huts with windows of stained glass, which, dignified as summer-houses, adorn a thousand suburban plots. The cheap conservatory is conspicuous by its absence; there are no ricketty chairs with Striped awnings, tawdry Japanese umbrellas or portable hammocks. In short, the average cottage garden is a garden, not a piece of ground littered with a medley of rubbish, which lacks even the merit of accomplishing the doubtful purpose for which it was intended.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Old-Fashioned Garden: And Other Verses So bright and lovely is the dear old place, It seems as though the country's very heart Were centered here, and that its antique grace Must ever hold it from the world apart. Immured it lies among the meadows deep, Its ﬂowery stillness beautiful and calm as softest sleep. Some like a garden where the hand of art Appears in every terrace, walk, and bed, Where vases stand in even rows apart And shrubs are taught symmetric shade to spread But little art I wish; enough for me This garden where the ﬂowers grow in sweet simplicity. Fair is each budding thing the garden shows, From spring's frail crocus to the latest bloom Of fading autumn. Every wind that blows Across that glowing tract sips rare perfume From all the tangled blossoms tossing there Soft winds, they fain would linger long, nor farther fare! The morning-glories ripple o'er the hedge And ﬂeck its greenness with their tinted foam Sweet Wilding things, up to the garden's edge They love to wander from their meadow home, To take what little pleasure here they may Ere all their silken trumpets close before the warm mid-day.

Similar cases have not infrequently been recorded of other birds; but one which is more than usually interesting comes in the shape of a newspaper cutting, which narrates how a jackdaw, after seventeen years' captivity, laid two eggs last year, and has not only laid three this year but has also commenced to incubate them.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In a time of climate change and mass extinction, how we garden matters more than ever: “An outstanding and deeply passionate book.” —Marc Bekoff, author of The Emotional Lives of Animals Plenty of books tell home gardeners and professional landscape designers how to garden sustainably, what plants to use, and what resources to explore. Yet few examine why our urban wildlife gardens matter so much—not just for ourselves, but for the larger human and animal communities. Our landscapes push aside wildlife and in turn diminish our genetically programmed love for wildness. How can we get ourselves back into balance through gardens, to speak life's language and learn from other species? Benjamin Vogt addresses why we need a new garden ethic, and why we urgently need wildness in our daily lives—lives sequestered in buildings surrounded by monocultures of lawn and concrete that significantly harm our physical and mental health. He examines the psychological issues around climate change and mass extinction as a way to understand how we are short-circuiting our response to global crises, especially by not growing native plants in our gardens. Simply put, environmentalism is not political; it's social justice for all species marginalized today and for those facing extinction tomorrow. By thinking deeply and honestly about our built landscapes, we can create a compassionate activism that connects us more profoundly to nature and to one another.
