The American Gardener: A Treatise On the Situation, Soil, and Laying Out of Gardens, On the Making and Managing of Hot-Beds and Green-Houses; and On t

William Cobbett

Out of print since 1856, "The American Gardener" is perhaps the very first work of American gardening literature. Filled with practical advice memorably imparted with Cobbett's gift for the indelible phrase, it discusses all aspects of gardening, with special attention to those plants newly successful in America.
